- e10s update
- MarcoZ was finally able to get a virtual buffer in second document/process with NVDA.
- Jamie was also seeing the NetscapeDispatchWnd and found that this is the window text of the content process window. This is only spoken by NVDA if WM_GETOBJECT fails. He suspects that this is a reincarnation of bug 599814, this time showing up if our own out of process processes are very busy.
- Google and Apple's proposed screen reader detection API (Davidb)
- Increase of reports of Thunderbird accessibility bugs. MarcoZ suspects some of these can be attributed to bug 656225. Reports are, among others: bug 673860, bug 674462, and bug 674463. All of these indicate problems in our creation of accessibility tree objects when certain items are added to XUL list boxes or other list-ish elements. Thunderbird uses dynamic XUL more prevalently than Firefox, so this is why these primarily show up in Thunderbird.
- Telemetry next steps.
- Other updates?
