Scott (jwir3)

Last Week:

  • Developed a demo video for reflow-on-zoom. It's available at: refloz.ogv (Also, there's an apk build at the same location: refloz.apk - It also has the maxRatio preference available, too. If you choose to try it out, keep in mind it's still pretty rough.)
  • Worked on bug 784375: Add ability to specify a maximum font inflation ratio. It's in review, but I'm trying to get it to reflow when prefs change.
  • Isolated behavior for -webkit-text-size-adjust: percentage%. It appears to simply increase the specified font size. Still performing a few more tests before adding it to the spec-in-progress for this feature.

This Week:

  • Still working to fix quirks in reflow-on-zoom prototype.
  • Assisting mbrubeck in debugging issues with bug 716575 where patch 3 of the series is crashing talos (on apparently an NS_SUCCEEDED(xxx) operation?!?!) We're not entirely sure how to reproduce- it seems to only happen in Talos tests (mochitests and reftests pass just fine...) I'm going to try and see if I can get talos running on my phone to see if I can shed some light on this problem. We don't have any information from logs, because when it crashes on talos, we don't even get a browser_output.txt file. :|
  • bug 790645: Font inflation enlarges text when reloading content in form inputs after zooming

BLassey

Last week

  • in Warsaw for performance work week
  • bug 727352 - get rid of JSON usage in viewport updates

Expect this to grow and refine for the next couple of weeks as we improve our reporting tools before Firefox 16 is released.

Some Upcoming Plans are:

  • Better Tagging for Input
  • Graph of Input tags allowing us to track trends
  • SUMO Reported Bugs per release
  • Positive Input
  • And your Feedback!
