Schedule

• Next merge is 2012-07-16
• Beta
  • Fx14 Beta 7 went live in the Market on 2012-06-15
  • Unless we have a need to respin, Beta 7 is RC

Major Topics for This Week

Fx14.1

Be aware that we will be doing a point release when Fx14 ships for desktop. We are using the release to get some fixes landed and to align with the desktop Gecko platform.

Beta branch mechanics

Beta 7 will be the first release off our 14.0 release branch, which means that default mozilla-beta will be open to 14.1 landings (things marked blocking-fennec:.N+). Once 14.0 is released to our release channel in the market, the beta channel will start shipping 14.1 builds from the default mozilla-beta branch. This also means that as of now, anything landing for 14.0 will need to double land on the mozilla-beta default branch and the mozilla-beta MOBILE140_2012061216_RELBRANCH branch

Stand ups

Suggested format:

• What did you do last week?
• What are working on this week?
• Anything blocking you?

Please keep your update to under 2 minutes!

Groundwork for flash is pretty much done. Having some trouble sorting out some key parts. If anyone knows how to deal with creating offscreen contexts on android, and/or knows about using EGL_KHR_fence_sync, please give me a ping (rkd).
