We all agree the gaia-component should start for the next release since it might also help reducing the effort for visual refresh(if gaia-component migration is ready). So Fred and I will start to apply more components for more testing about performance.

George
Since last meeting
- (bug 1154582) - Build system configure - adding configure.js to generate strong dependency all.mk and execute it - r+ricky
- waiting for Tim and Greg's feedback on this patch.
- (bug 1155873) - [NFC] 'Swipe to share' screen can reveal homescreen if returning to home from image share (from notification) - r?alive, 2.2+
- (bug 1158388) - [NFC] Swiping up causes jerky, stuttered animation in the Shrinking UI. 2.2?
- (bug 1158379) - [NFC] Shrinking UI will flicker, flash every time NFC pairing is activated. 2.2?
- Not much clue for above two bugs, I will investigate on it.
TODO
- Build ENV v.s. build steps manager, will file bug after bug 1154582 is merged.
- Build spec on wiki, will work with Ricky on it.
- NFC related bugs (bug 1155873) , (bug 1158388) , (bug 1158379)
- If time allows, I will spend time on system 2 refactoring.
Topic status update

- New build wiki https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gaia/Build/NewBuildSystem
Greg
Last week
- Try to figure out what makes building B2G so painful, especially for newbies. This is for IoT, if we (according to the information I've got) really want to more makers join us to develop something cool
- Try to do some experiences on Windows with Vagrant (Foxbox)
- Try to find a way to prevent do full repo-sync, which require "community member" to fetch 20GB sources+histories with the unstable connection.
- May publish a nightly version with tar package. At least it could prevent to fetch them from repo including useless history, which make the progress very frustrated even with MoCo's network. The idea has been discussed with Thinker, and there is a mail on b2g-internal.
- Backup Flame is another painful step. It would fail, without any useful prompt. I've found if anyone want to re-flash it with the customized build, the one needs to flashed the device with base image again, or the step would fail. Need to do more check about that.
- Try to integrate marionette-runner with raptor: it works, but need a customized Raptor runner with only slight modification. I've sent a mail to Eli to ask his opinion but he didn't reply. Need to send the mail again.
This week
- Continue whatever I list above.

Story Points, Target Milestone and ETA
Please put story point and target milestone to EVERY ticket that is assigned to you, starting from V2.0 4/28.
For blockers, please also put ETA in whiteboard, format: [ETA:4/30]
Here is how we go:
- 1 point means approximately 2 working days.
- The story point goes up with Fibonacci Number, please use the following number: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 (13 is not recommended unless you really have to)
- Put in whiteboard, format: [p=2]. When you first got the ticket & after a quick estimation.
- The efforts shall include "unit test", "getting review+", "landed".
- When closing a ticket, you may make correction to the p to reflect actual efforts.
- p means "the effort you spent", NOT "how long the ticket is closed". For example, you're assigned a ticket on Monday, but you wait and start working on it Thursday and Friday then done, p should put as 1, not 3.
