SeaMonkey Meeting Details
- Time: March 08, 2011, 13:00 UTC
- Location: #seamonkey IRC channel
Agenda
- Who's taking minutes?
Action Items
(who needs to do what that hasn't been recorded in a bug) We should assign people to the open items.
NEW
OPEN
- MReimer's drawing tablet broke some time back so he stopped working on theme icons. We should look into asking Mozilla's Direct Giving Program [adriank].
- Note: Mozilla Direct Giving contact is sethb.
CLOSED
K.I.V.
- Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. We can still only wait on the Google front right now. Didn't hear anything about open Geolocation service yet. No easy solution in sight.
SeaMonkey 2.0.12
open blockers (0) blocker requests (0) fixed (30)
- SHIPPED on March 2.
SeaMonkey 2.0.13
open blockers (0) blocker requests (0) fixed (12)
- Based on Gecko 1.9.1.18, target TBD, see Releases, in sync with Firefox 3.5.18.
SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 3
open blockers (3) blocker requests (21) targeted (2) fixed (58)
- Firefox 4 is in RC now, so this should happen very soon.
- Beta 3 should be the final feature and string freeze for the 2.1 series.
- Sync follow-ups and other bugs that want to land for 2.1 with L10n impact should block b3 [InvisibleSmiley: requests already set appropriately].
- Shipped Extensions: Chatzilla window still broken bug 605001 due to backend bugs [InvisibleSmiley: has reviewed patches, only needs landing?]. Venkman is fixed now.
- The last beta for FF4 has been released. RCs TBD. We should do beta3 once they're in that RC state. [InvisibleSmiley: Given FF's release speedup, our review slowness and the fact that b3 = string freeze I suggest we really make b3 depend on readiness of its blockers rather than a fixed date.]
- Blocker request triage: Anything needing strings or is a feature addition needs to either block b3 or not block at all (can land for b3, no chance afterwards in the 2.1 cycle).
Further 2.1 scheduling:
- Please help updating the New 2.1 Features page as we go.
- Beta 3 should be followed by 2.1pre and our own RCs, RC at least when FF4 is going final.
- To clarify SeaMonkey 2.1b3 should be based on Gecko 2.0 RC, our RC on Gecko 2.0 final, and SeaMonkey 2.1 final should be based on Gecko 2.0.1.
- We should release within 6 weeks from FF4, but we should not release in the two weeks following FF4 final due to media being all about that release - with usually having a cycle of about a month or slightly more for security updates, it probably makes sense to do final based on and in sync with Mozilla platform 2.0.1.
Feature List, Planning
Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 65 new, 29 fixed, 40 triaged.
- Good further triage targets could come out of looking at the component bug counts, pick yours!

Major wanted/needed features:
2.1
Needing help, Unowned, Stalled

- bug 526210 Update the icon set for the SeaMonkey Modern Theme.

Active
- bug 570004 Popup/"doorhanger" notifications [Neil].
- Implementation moved to bug 595810.
- status/progress?
- bug 581526 Add SeaMonkey support for the Windows 7 jump list [mcsmurf].
- Has positive review...
- bug 606683 Allow customization of toolbar in Composer and MailNews Composition [IanN].
- [IanN: I'm having to patch lots of things, so splitting those off into smaller bugs (as you can see from my fix list), to try and make reviewing easier]. First parts done and checked in.
- bug 401417 Add an option for a search box in SeaMonkey toolbar (and add an engine manager). [KaiRo]
- Making good progress.
We also should take a look at the other items on 2.1-wanted Also the nominations need triaging.
- We will need to take a close look at Lightning, which is mainly targeting Thunderbird.
- Lightning 1.1 seems to be targeted to be Gecko 2.0-based.
- Due to recent Lightning patches/fixes, Lightning nightlies are now working again on SM trunk.
2.next
Needing help, Unowned, Stalled
- bug 460953 kill-rdf port.
- bug 436794 Enable Mac OS X system address book per default and add UI.
- SM UI needed, unowned, helpwanted.
- bug 449728 Drag tabs between windows.
- bug 477845 Build a standalone (Gecko 2.0) Composer. [kaze]
- kaze is currently busy with his new job so doesn't have much time to spend on this.
- bug 477840 Backport KompoZer to Composer (Depends on bug 477845).
- kaze has done a ton of work there. We still need to work out some organizational issues. At the moment there is no active interest from MoMo for bringing standalone composer into comm-central. That's something we (KaiRo and kaze) will have to negotiate with the Thunderbird team (dmose).
- bug 507841 Port Bug 422814 - Make account configuration quick, easy, and more secure (autoconfig, Quick Account Setup).
- bug 533908 SeaMonkey Mail: tabs not restored [misak].
For now only a drop zone for those that surely will not make 2.1 any more.
