Topics for This Week

Hub
Refining Home.panels API bug 972306, bug 968573, bug 968188. We'll share the demo add-ons we've been working on (Pocket, Flickr, RSS) once the API stabilizes.

What is the point? If I can read an rpr log, we spent 24 minutes of infra time to extract a single value measured in milliseconds.
 09:14:22     INFO -  02-19 09:13:18.414 I/Robocop ( 2607): __start_report509__end_report
 09:14:22     INFO -  02-19 09:13:18.421 I/Robocop ( 2607): __startTimestamp509__endTimestamp

This is incredibly wasteful and not statistically valid!

  • Eclipse support finally landed!
  • Planning to bit rot you all by landing bug 938994 this week.
  • Posted work in progress on a Fennec JUnit 3 test suite bug 903528. Plan of record is to land test suite without TBPL support and encourage uptake by demonstrating how much easier it is to experiment in an instrumentation test that is locally run than in Fennec itself. This is much more convincing when developing in an IDE.
  • Mentoring mcomella with bug 915312, a tricky mix of native code and build system hijinkery.
  • Re-writing Firefox Account status activity to look like GeckoPreferences. I'm using the following small library to ease the PreferenceFragment on >= v11 vs. PreferenceActivity battle on < v11; we'll see how that goes.
