Team Stand-ups

(In <2 mins, what did your team accomplish last week, on what is your team working on this week, and on what, if anything, is your team blocked? No questions during the stand-ups. All questions should be asked during the roundtable.)

Firefox OS Media Apps (hema)

<Read Only>

• Last Week
  • Team meetup in Vancouver
    • Went over media backlog and estimated user stories
    • Reviewed Ux draft specs for some of the user stories in the backlog
    • Quick Demos of the work done thus far for 1.2 user stories specifically, music status icon and music info/controls features - ping Dominic Kuo/Jim Porter if anyone is interested.
    • Evan Shapiro (intern) presented better performing Music app with playlists features (also on Air Mozilla) - https://air.mozilla.org/2013-intern-shapiro/
    • Planned our next sprint: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/s/projects/886840

Media (mreavy)

WebVTT: new js parser integration should land this week. Web Audio: MediaStreamAudioSourceNode/MediaElementAudioSourceNode landed. HRTF spatialization just about ready to land.

Seceng (mmc)

• bug 790923 - Kang landed secomp for b2g on inbound (initial part of sandboxing). More sandboxing to come.
• bug 824652 - landed fix for crypto.generateCRMFRequest bypasses CSP (allows script execution from a string, without unsafe-eval)
• bug 875456 - progress improving Mixed Content related messages in the webconsole, look for it sometime next week.
• Working with Tor project to see if we can help minimize chance of another 0day scare like they just had. (probably: upstream some of their patches for tor browser bundle, get them back on trunk instead of ESR)

(An opportunity to hear about status with the various quality programs that do not have a formal team structure.)

MemShrink (njn)

Roundtable

(Comments and questions that arise during the course of the meeting or otherwise do not have a section.)

<Read only beyond this point>
