Token Server (tarek/alexis)

Sync

Firefox Sync (gps)

• Road toward Sync 2.0
  • bsmith working on new crypto C++ code
  • Git work at https://github.com/mozilla-services/services-central/tree/rewrite-the-world
  • Landed refactor of code out of sync and into common, crypto
  • Running Python functional tests against test JS Sync server! Finding spec compliance issues, fixing
  • Slowly implementing stage-based sync
• Apps Sync engine removed (to be replaced by AITC)
• dev-planning posts on BID + Sync, flag day. Transparency: we has it
• Keeping an eye on BID browser integration progress so we can figure out the Sync bits

Android Sync (rnewman/emtwo/nalexander/liuche)

• 3 beta blockers
• 8 release blockers
• Bidirectional send tab landing soon
• Fennec bugs fixed, so we should have password and form history sync working now.

Notifications

Client/Server (jbalogh/jrconlin)

• building the fnCrypt libraries and test suites.

Other Projects (rtilder)

• Receipt signer
  • Just different enough from the BrowserID spec that fork & modify of PyBrowserID in progress. Hopefully merge via pull request will happen

QA

Client Testing and Sign-offs (tracy)

• Android
  • Password sync landed but triggers Fennec crasher bug 744816 - Fennec crashes in concurrent access of password db (fix landed this morning - will test on next nightly)
  • The end to end UX of Password sync is also going to be stymied by bug 745302 - Passwords synced to Fennec database, but don't autocomplete in UI. (Which depends on form sync working correctly)

• Desktop
  • A small train rolled out of the station midweek.
  • How is 2.0 client side work going? gps said there is nothing ready for testing at this time.

• Functional and load test of AITC and TokenServer in Dev is done for now
• Tracking and reviewing Stage deployments and functional/load testing
• Bug review, regression, and verification
• QA team recruiting is ongoing
• Future projects for QA team
  • Notifications
  • Sync 2.0
  • MetLog
