Development Updates

Fx 2.0.0.17 / Fx 3.0.2

Since we last talked, Thunderbird 2.0.0.16 shipped and we had a joint post-mortem for Firefox 2.0.0.16/3.0.1.

We're currently finalizing the schedule for Firefox 2.0.0.17 and 3.0.2. If you have a bug that's blocking either release, please work on it immediately as we're more than likely aiming for a release in the next three to four weeks.

Foundation Updates

• Future of the Foundation
  • David, Frank, Gerv, and Zak did a "Foundation road-trip" with Mark Surman from Vancouver up to the summit to discuss future plans. Fortunately the the rock slide waited a day or two and thus avoided wiping out the entire Foundation staff in one fell swoop.
  • We did an interactive "Mozilla Foundation 2.0" session at the summit, with lots of good suggestions from the participants. More on this later as we have a chance to write things up.

• CAs and related issues
  • Frank gave preliminary approval to requests from Comodo (for a new ECC root, bug 421946) and Wells Fargo (bug 428390).

• Public communications
  • David hosted a session on the www.mozilla.org site at the summit.

• Upcoming activities
  • Gerv will be on holiday until August 20.
  • Frank is on vacation all this week (August 4-8).

Other Business

• BMO Reorg Part One completed last Wednesday night / Thursday morning; part two coming in a few weeks
