Coordination: how often are you reading up on teamstatus?

Meeting Notes

MWC, busy, successful, set good high expectations to live up to, constant demos, inspiring
- Persona on phone is important! Meaningful federated identity system is the hard road, but important win for users
- Supporting these users is an important priority
Welcome back James Bonacci!

Signin & big Q1 goals

Signin team is juggling 5 important Q1 goals (including B2G support)
- assessment due Wed for each goal, with 2/3 key dates leading up to the goals
- make any hard calls about priority quickly

Big Tent

Mission critical goal (Beta2 & BigTent)
- Figure out what needs to be done to get it into production
- Need a week in production before we can do Beta2
- 9 April is drop dead day for hitting deadline for making Q1 goal
- Don't want a quality dip right before we go to press
BigTent blocked on QA
- 5 star bug, Yahoo mobile (upstream issue, same bug on stack overflow)
  - Maybe not a five star if its found on other major sites?
- Proposal: revert stage back to train-2013.02.15 which is current production, to focus on BigTent testing against current production (current train going well enough)
IRC meeting to pull BigTent plan together

Beta2

Ben jumping in to take on Beta2, will ask for help where he needs it
Dan handing off workflow from Beta1 to Ben for Beta2

AWS

Gen can now provision the environment in region (sans code)
- need AMIs for bigtent, proxy
BigTent + Proxy tier is standalone product in AWS, without moving everything else in lockstep
All of the pieces need to be moved from SC2 by April deadline

B2G

B2G continues to rock
- Jed solved memory issue on B2G by making process not long lived
- If phone kills app due to memory usage, no solution for that problem yet
- Platform team: perhaps they can help, they are open to helping if they can -- lay out requests for them

Blog postings

Node.js

A node.js blog schedule can be viewed at: https://id.etherpad.mozilla.org/a-nodejs-winter
- Deadline tonight for Zach's post
- Lloyd is up next w/awsbox, his deadline in two weeks 3/18 (Lloyd will speak up by tomorrow if that is infeasible)
- ozten on deck for 4/1 deadline with l10n-abide
These posts are important and have been well received
- Really good text coming out, these posts have a really positive impact
- Good recruiting tool!

Identity team blog

To give the blog some life, Ben is jumping in and doing some posts
- No master plan yet, jump in if you are interested
Ben will answer question about whether Persona is doomed (framed differently)
Good idea to reference back to other posts

Persona Adoption Wins

Metrics dashboard: triple our usage from Jan 1! Above 30,000 users per day
Props to Dan for landing Discourse! Awesome stuff.
Badges for adding Discourse to blog
Skype call to use Persona on Discourse site itself (?)
Using leverage to get Discuss to do Persona as well

Team Process

Teamstatus: is it a useful read? (Ben reads it, so do several other team members, not everyone)

Send Ben and Tauni a one liner by email on what change could be made to get you to read teamstatus once a week

Team Status

B2G

- need to deal with this soon: https://github.com/mozilla/browserid/issues/3033 (too-early assertion expiration on b2g) - good first stab at merging dev and b2g with 6a68; actually considerably less painful than anticipated :) - UX updates need scheduling

Signin to the Web

Wondering about our train schedule? Wonder no more, Lloyd created an awesome tool that clear up any questions about where we are with our schedule

BigTent

Dialup Performance

KPI / Metrics

Changes lined up, waiting on security review and qa blessing for kpi - live

ScalingUp

Profile in the Cloud (PiCL)

check out the Attached Services wiki page for regular updates and new demos.

- Shane Caraveo feedback for native identity patch super helpful (re demo of native sign-in patch)

WebRTC

QA

train-2013.03.01 built and deployed to stage with some preliminary testing -

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=846928

For bigtent testing, we may want to move stage back to train-2013.02.15 which is current production and (hopefully) get that out next week.
I've put up a c1.medium awsbox to test 2003.03.01 if we roll back to 2003.02.15 on stage - https://train0301.personatest.org/
there are a few open issues at the moment with bigtent
I am happy to take anyone's help in testing bigtent ;-)
