Major Topics for This Week

Maple
Maple appears healthy enough to land on m-c. Work is not finished thoughhas landed on m-c. Ongoing work should happen on m-c.
Aurora uplift
We will start the normal process of requesting approval for patches we'd like to see uplifted from m-c to m-a. This will not be the "any and all patches" process we were using previously. We have crash fixes and blockers that will likely move to Aurora.

Stand ups

Suggested format:

  • What did you do last week?

Last week:

  • lots of work on bug 732564 (new viewport code) and follow-up bugs (735180, 735248)
  • with wesj, worked through linker errors I kept running into (732069, 735344)
  • addressed review comments on bug 725095 and landed maple this morning

Next week:

  • deal with fallout from the new viewport code. there are some bugs filed, pretty sure I understand why all of them are happening (except for 732016), it's just a matter of fixing bugs in implementation edge cases.
  • get back to viewport prediction so we have less checkerboarding during panning
