What are you doing?

  • clouserw: AMO stats now use Hive instead of Pentaho (~3 month project)! 2015 HR and goals stuff is time consuming. A day of meetings with "horizon 3" project planning. Was out for a week. Costume inspired by http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1990/10/23

  • muffinresearch: Bango meetings. Zippy fires put out. Mozfest! fixing last few fxa issues on payments - hacking on desktop payments prototype.
  • andym: mozfest, bango, fxa
  • ashort: payments/docker config, FxA bugs, making native-FxA work with yulelog would require package push
  • chuck: operator dashboard
  • ddurst: getting ready for desktop UI, Tarako, have been looking at performance, but... mat and rob have done more.

Recording: https://vreplay.mozilla.com/replay/showRecordingExternal.html?key=QOo33etUGhu83CE

What are you doing?

  • clouserw: New Gaia PR for our dev/stage packages - added instructions for how to test gaia changes on your device to our docs. Wrote https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Clouserw/Flashing to help people flash devices. Plenty of HR stuff. Starting to talk about 2015 goals. Gearing up for our new zero-based accounting. Have filed for PTO for next week.
  • muffinresearch: Helping out getting FxA payments bugs quashed. Fixing dev-env bugs. Fighting with devices.
  • andym
    • The FxA fight (only 3 p1s left and they are going down fast)
    • Some docker tips:
      • run fig as a daemon for improved perf: fig up -d
      • delete old containers: docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
      • always run tests with: :-P
      • docker 1.3/boot2docker 1.3 is out which bundles vbox guest additions so iso wrangling is no more. yay!
      • note that some of us are now able to complete payments from end to end on docker
  • ashort: setup on docker, payment flow on docker, FxA/trusted-ui headscratching and bugfixing
  • mstriemer: Firefox accounts payment flow
  • durst: (finished Tarako GA stuff! -- thanks, mat) setup on docker, learning to work with Flame, make builds, etc. Beginning triage of perf bugs, running timing tests on builds (locally, on Flame); getting no responses on package version proposals; prepping for desktop UI refresh (feed); trying to plan ahead for getFeature and feed refactoring.
  • chuck: operator dashboard.
  • spasovski: feed.styl refactoring
  • dbialer: userman - bugs for consumers and devs that fall between the cracks of repoman and projects. bigger than 1 day but should be defined enough in the bug.
  • robhudson: mostly random repoman bugs this week. Will continue Django 1.7 work next week.
  • ngoke: upgrading frontend projects to use gulp/bower, documentation

Roundtable

Oct 3rd

Recording: https://vreplay.mozilla.com/replay/showRecordingExternal.html?key=D6omRta5KfJVYKo

What are you doing?

  • clouserw: Spent a week focusing on AMO. Triaged *every AMO bug* @ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/reports.cgi?product=addons.mozilla.org&datasets=UNCONFIRMED&datasets=NEW . Got some AMO goals (top two: integrate FxA, move forum over to discourse). Debugged a crazy bug where someone wasn't getting email (spoiler alert: they were blocked at socketlabs for having too many failures to their address). Updated Jugband On Deck UI @ http://jugband.paas.allizom.org/ondeck. Spent a pile of time doing HR stuff.. Lots of meetings about packaged apps and Q12015 stuff. Played the last mid-week soccer game of the season last night. :(
  • muffinresearch: Got zippy running in docker. Fixed a bunch of first-run issues with dbs etc. Super close to having app -> payments up and running - just some dns troubles to fix. Experimented with using different code sharing methods from host to docker.
  • robhudson: Added search by author, finished up recommendation API and front-end -- currently waiting on recommendation server to come online, working on misc repoman bugs. My "fun bug" is getting the pending queue working on ES.
  • ashort: so much FxA features + bugs. Working with Krupa and Identity teams to smooth out problems with various flows; continuing to work on migration from Persona
  • andym: fighting FxA which is looking awesome and also the packaged app which ngoke did an awesome job on
  • ngoke: packaged app, commbadge launch, fireplace visual bugs, fixing dependency issues with login/consumer info code to upgrade other commonplace projects to use fxa
  • mat: various repoman bugs
  • chuck: operator dashboard, recovering from strep
  • spasovski: app tile fixes, UI bugs
  • mstriemer: fxa migration
  • durst: attempting to verify GA and fireplace & tarako; talking about/planning for NEW tarako releases; setting up Flame and adb and such; reorganizing all marketplace perf bugs under a new tracker for running debt things; trying to get people to help out with game center/galaxy; watched 2 out of 3 acts I wanted to see on the iTunes festival (last night)
  • kumar: some bits and pieces on fxpay https://github.com/mozilla/fxpay then some repoman paper cuts

Roundtable

  • Updated our packaged app in prod for the first time ever. Are your devices upgrading cleanly?
    • As it turned out, its not the first time ever.
  • There is an influx of new volunteers. If you'll mentor a bug put yourself on it and make sure it's tagged [good first bug]
  • Cloud Services all hands was recorded if you missed it. Also 55 people in one vidyo room!
  • Apps Day was also recorded (and you should watch it, if you haven't already)
  • Webdev Extravaganza next Tuesday at 10am

  • Roundtable

Sept 5th

Recording: https://vreplay.mozilla.com/replay/showRecordingExternal.html?key=noM9OlF33Pr1KZj

  • What are people working on?
    • jkerim: finishing off inapp products pages for launch, starting on repoman tickets
    • chuck: feed post-launch, codifying pwalm's style guide, operator dashboard planning
    • spasovski: many front-end fixes for fireplace
    • andym:
      • single page app: found a couple of bugs we should solve
      • firefox accounts: planning for end of sept
      • repoman: focusing on consumer pages and going to focus on killing off admin tools
      • docker: is awesome, you should try it+1
      • instant app prototype
      • serverless in-app: sounding pretty much done
      • apk factory stabilisation
    • clouserw: planning next steps/projects to work on, meeting cloud services, still haven't found any volunteers for L10n!, AMO+Metrics=aahhh, reviewed PRDs,
    • durst: feed changes, tarako dev submission (temporary) & reviewer queue (thanks, mstriemer), tarako outreach comm, fake data, galaxy team wrangling, desktop/about:apps
    • ngoke: feed post-launch, instant apps, thinking about bowerifying front-end modules
    • kumar: jkerim, mark and I got a working release of the fxpay lib out! https://github.com/mozilla/fxpay Time to get devs to start using it. Hacks post soon.
    • robhudson: add-on database removal leading up towards merging the Addon and Webapp django models. Other misc repoman bugs. Sprinting at the DjangoCon!
    • cvan: writing spec for game centre, figuring out FxA integration, rewriting prototyped for galaxy.js (a drop-in script for client-side in-game services)
    • mstriemer: finishing Tarako review queue changes. Starting to work on Firefox Accounts migration.
    • dethe: repoman bugs
    • mat: about:apps, some misc repoman bugs, mobilenetwork related stuff in fireplace, GA for packaged apps/tarako debugging
  • Roundtable
    • 15k Tarako devices sold in 3 days! http://www.financialexpress.com/news/intex-sells-15000-firefox-cloud-fx-smartphones-in-3-days/1285321
    • Welcome to cloud services!
      • much silver lining, so wow.
    • Some awesome demo?!
    • How important is Python 2.7 to y'all?
      • Language features + improved security
      • Django 1.7 would be nice. I really do not like schematic.+1^infinity
    • Are any developers using Docker?
    • yes, its pretty awesome, did my first test and pull request from it
    • how to install docker...
    • https://etherpad.mozilla.org/mkt-docker-dev-env-instructions
    • So far all feedback on feed that I (wil) have seen has been really positive (which seems really surprising? most people really dislike change!). Also the way Scott can target regions and feature single apps with descriptions is a positive for partners looking for emphasis
    • If we're trying to be contributor-friendly, we should really reconsider our repository names. They're nonsensical, not descriptive, and must be overwhelming to prospective contributors who don't understanding the architecture.
      • A good start: renaming wharfie to "marketplace", as it (seems to be) intended to be the canonical way to set up a Marketplace development environment.
      • Other prospective changes: fireplace -> marketplace-client, transonic -> marketplace-curation-tools, etc.
      • +1
      • I like this idea
      • marketplace-stats == win
      • I can attest to the overwhelming part.
      • And there are a ton of them
      • (ngoke) Do we have enough repos to just have our own Github org?
        • Probably, but it would be a huge change at this point. I don't think it nullifies my original point, though.
        • Not that I'm against it, but want to note that renaming repos is also a huge change
        • If we're asking everybody to change remotes already, it might be worth considering.
        • Not sure this is a win
        • Better to combine related repos into directories of one repo?
        • Might get hairy for deployment/branches
        • https://wiki.mozilla.org/Marketplace/dev/repositories
        • missing yogafire (marketplace-client-tarako)
        • missing transonic
        • What if in an app is not markeplace specific, eg: solitude can hopefully be more than just marketplace
        • eg: payments-backend (solitude)
        • plus solitude is a pretty descriptive name, it's a lonely world of inner reflection ;-)
        • See also: http://marketplace.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/setup.html
    • Added in this for consumer: http://marketplace.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/setup.html#consumer-pages-only
    • https://coderwall.com/p/xlatfq?i=9&p=1&q= is pretty sweet! Sets up a post-commit hook to take a picture with your webcam on every commit.
      • Nobody wants to see pictures of me.
      • Can I take a picture with your webcam every time I commit?
    • There is a cloud services show and tell everyone is invited to
    • Space lettuce

August 22nd

Recording: None. Andy was PTO and we don't know what we're doing.


  • What are people working on?
    • clouserw
      • While in the discussion of multiple data centers, the idea of splitting data per region came up (eg. European data stays in Europe). The more I think about this the bigger of a project it becomes. It's not a requirement right now, but worth thinking about as the site evolves. Want to be involved? Speak up!
      • Add-on signing project
      • Some L10n fun
    • mat:
      • device filtering on desktop
      • mvno carriers detection (+mobilenetwork.js refactor)
      • feature detection using the new hasFeature API
    • rob
      • hidden apps - done, shipping next week
      • file system and db clean of AMO extensions (repoman)

      • feed
  • Roundtable
    • durst demoing the feed
    • It's a big week for pushing. We've got hidden apps and the feed, among our usual pile of fixes. Please help Krupa if she asks for it, and if not be aware of things you can do to make things quicker for her (adding STR, testing things well, not breaking builds, etc.).
      • The Feed is a big deal so we're going to be talking about it and getting a lot of eyes on it. Let's make sure it's as good as it can be. From what I've seen it's a really cool change.
    • Our packaged apps have landed in all the branches of Gaia. Please help test them and any bugs we have we should fix in the next couple of weeks before 2.1 freezes.
    • Are any developers using Docker yet? Any reason not to?
    • Coveralls is added to zamboni at least. Let's add it to the rest of our projects - it's awesome. Also worth pointing out our super high coverage. 96% I think?
    • Desktop filtering was backed out of this week - scheduled for next week.
    • Interesting what's deployed app. Here is zamboni: http://mzl.la/1uYWa8p
    • Apps show and tell is today at 12:30 Pacific Time https://wiki.mozilla.org/Apps/ShowAndTells

    • What has to be in that? e.g Firefox accounts, payments
    • Its a feature freeze not a code freeze?
  • Stuff landing in 2.1:

  • Update on some open platform bugs:
    • 756364 - onoffline and ononline events should fire when connection status changes
      • I asked for an update but I don't think is blocking us, so they are targeting Q3 roughly. Tell me or leave a note if that's not the case.
    • 999931 - make SVG performant enough for use as icons in Gaia apps
      • This depends on several bugs which are currently getting fixed. It's being worked in as a primary focus so expected to land this quarter. If someone can volunteer to measure the improvement I can get you in touch with the right folks (or comment in the bug).
    • 1009645 - Implement the API detection parts of navigator.getFeature()
      • This is the latest in a series of bugs (you can see the dependency tree) but is making solid progress. Expected to land in 1.4 or 2.0...I should know that.
    • Are there other platform bugs that are are blocking us or are particularly difficult to work with?
    • 985614 - Packaged app installation does not trigger `onsuccess` callback
      • Is listed as fixed yesterday. Golly.
  • (clouserw) Flame devices: sssshhhhipping!
    • Once the OTA update channels are up, you'll need to flash the device to get it switched over to those channels.
    • (andym) got mine, yay so many phones
  • (clouserw) Feedback cycles are spinning up. Be honest and take your time.
    • If you aren't asked for feedback on someone but you have some, please share. Find their manager, find me, find someone they trust.
  • How easy is it for a newcomer to install the Marketplace?
    • (andym) Getting easier! :)
    • database 80% smaller
  • How close are we to being a real packaged app?
  • Do we have a feed yet?
  • Payments
    • Bango are currently experiencing problems, documented in bugs and awaiting fixes
    • Working with their NOC to resolve, moments after typing this it worked better.
  • (andym) Will be tagging shortly. Make sure your code is in and unstable.
    • next week its: clouserw < ddurst turn?
    • then: dethe
  • Jun 26th is the next Public Apps Day
  • Next week is the Quarterly App Day in mountain view

  • Project Updates:
    • Tarako: Closing out this week (!!)
      • (still need to do the submission/review checkbox)
    • LatAm Operator Billing: Paused until AMX & Boku sort our their differences
      • Feed: Picking up steam again; work week pajama party at davor's next week with a side of desktop marketplace
    • Repoman: Still being awesome. Schedule for rotation?
      • Dethe and Allen to Firefox Accounts next week
      • Rob still going strong, focusing on technical debt and hidden urls
    • Single Page App:
      • Mark and Stuart, in the closing stretches, hopefully one more week.
    • Serverless in-app payments:
      • Kumar and Jared, just started up, over 50%, next week working on receipts
    • Android Payments:
      • Waiting on Bango changes and Single Page App to finish up.

    • (clouserw) We got rid of ArcSight (woo) and can see CEF reports now (including CSP)
    • (clouserw) Flame update
    • (clouserw or andym) repoman strategy update:
      • High priority stuff is tagged [repoman] right now but there is a hole in our triages where anything that isn't a P1 will get lost
    • Once we're caught up on the [repoman] tagged bugs we'll have the repoman team start focusing on specific components per-week (or whatever timeframe)
    • (clouserw) There was a Marketplace Town Hall on Thursday. Check out the recording if you missed it.
    • (clouserw) [RFC] Recommendations Engine Architecture: https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/presentation/d/13OiRDZRaeOdZiu-MlhBT_8RcahlS08X_wmCP3RvXu6g/edit
    • (clouserw or andym) Triages have been very successful. We get through 100% of bugs now usually in 30minutes which, week-to-week is hours of less meetings I think.
      • Pull Requests are at a low also
    • Tag is at 11am!
      • Push hero this week is:

  • https://prs.paas.allizom.org/mozilla/zamboni is pretty cool
  • Feed v1 plan is to *not* launch it on Tarako as it will likely be a performance hit and will need to be optimized/tweaked/dogfooded/etc. Would be nice to see some A/B testing in Europe or something. Chuck has a plan to share!
  • Not too much of a plan, really. We're going to package the `feed` branch of Fireplace and distribute it on Marketplace as "Marketplace Aurora" or whatever, with the cutesy purple icon (right?!). It will keep the somewhat major changes cleanly separate for now and allow dogfooding and community feedback before we roll it out to the community at large.
  • Tarako
  • Working with UX to figure out will be going on the phone for Tarako
  • We are looking at other UIs and other interaction models
  • Feed is not going on Tarako
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarako_%28food%29
  • Any reason to keep the mkt-blocker bugzilla flag around?
  • Let's start using amo- and mkt- push etherpads
  • Push hero this week is dethe
  • New triage schedule in April trial
  • No more days peppered with triage meetings
  • No more 1.5 hours of meeting right before we push on Tuesdays
  • Agenda
  • 1) New & Unprioritized bugs: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=MktNeedsTriage&sharer_id=177149
  • 2) Any P1 bugs with no assignee: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=MktNeedsAssignee&sharer_id=177149
  • Boku is a new payment provider, we are working on it

  • Andy (and Monday too) and clouserw are OOTO. Andy is running the show!
  • Mozilla 2014 Goals public page is live: https://wiki.mozilla.org/2014
  • Apps day is next week. Send clouserw or andym (for payments) accomplishments we should call out.
  • FxA API documentation: https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-oauth-server/wiki/oauth-design
  • 272315 pull requests open for zamboni alone. Let's devote Friday after 1pm to open pull requests and get that down to zero.
  • Next Tuesday (afternoon) and Wednesday (morning) tune in to air mozilla to see updates from across the whole apps ecosystem. PST
  • Upvote this call for contributors! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7361095
  • several updates to http://jugband.paas.allizom.org/ - check it out for a summary of current status.
  • Operator dashboard has been successfully defined, designed, and estimated and is waiting for us to have time to do it. This is a big deal, because generally we don't have projects waiting in the pipeline all bundled up and ready.
  • Feed v1 has been successfully defined, designed, and estimated and we're actively working on it.
  • Developer and Payment choice are almost ready from a UX point of view to be pushed into development when ready.
  • Both of the examples above are evidence of our new process for working with UX/prod/etc and following the steps for our project lifecycle. It's been a lot less stressful than previous projects (I'm so confident in that I'll say "ask anyone involved" even when I'm not there to support my claims!) and is helping us refine the flow. I'm (clouserw) looking forward to working on future projects that use the new system and I think y'all will too.
