General Topics

  • People:TRIBE
  • Removal of "Enable JavaScript" and "Load images automatically" in Firefox 23
    • For me, this has rendered this version of Firefox unusable, and my only alternative was to uninstall it and reinstall 22. I hope that these option checkboxes will be restored in Firefox 24.

Friends of the Firefox team

Give a shoutout/thanks to people for helping fix and test bugs.

  • brinks7 who (although ~2.5 years ago) provided a great STR that helped _a lot_ with finally fixing bug 637020. [ttaubert]
  • onemen.one for providing lots of helpful comments on recent SessionStore improvements and regressions. [ttaubert]

Project Updates

Australis

Downloads API

  • It is a matter of days before switching the browser.download.useJSTransfer preference
  • Will wait before posting the bi-weekly update to firefox-dev

Thumbnailing

SessionStore

  • Lots of smaller code cleanups that help us understand more details and maintain SessionStore.
  • Work on reducing SessionStore impact when creating tabs to restore a session (bug 900803 and bug 901137) in progress.
  • We are working on introducing an API to store data per session bug 899213, just like Scratchpad does.
  • Fixed a very long-standing data loss issue bug 637020 that could make us lose whole windows when crashing at or shortly after startup.
  • Getting closer to move first parts of the data collection to content scripts, bug 894595, bug 903388, and bug 904003.
