Past highlights: landed more reader mode ux. (button bar, reading list). also introduced new bugs. localization going strong! (12 locales now + we got the process mostly covered). moved all build systems to Xcode 6.2. Disables Travis. And we just pushed out a new Aurora build.
Immediate focus:
- 1144146 Correctly hide/show the url bar when the reader mode settings are visible
- 1144165 Reader Mode controls should hide when navigating or switching tabs
- 1144291 Navigating to a reader mode page from the history stack results in blank page
- 1144404 Reader Mode URLS (about:reader) should not be part of history
- 1144511 Serve reader mode content via the built-in web server
Then:
- Move Reading List APIClient/Storage forward so that we can hookup buttons like Delete and Mark as Read
- Finalize Reader Mode UX

Round Table
- Meeting improvement discussion
- Etherpad: https://mobile.etherpad.mozilla.org/84
- Consensus: People like chatting with others on the team, and knowing what everyone is working on
- Other notes: Too long, hearing what people are working on lets others emphasize issues
- Consensus: People like chatting with others on the team, and knowing what everyone is working on
- Proposal: Everyone can summarize their work in bullets briefly, no more read-only; we can make an auto-generated wiki page of bug lists for those who are interested in that
- Finkle would like more people to add to the topics of the week
- I agree - "here is the stuff that is particularly relevant to everyone!"
