Quick Status Updates

Necko

• Merge to M-C hopefully happening very soon--preparing patch

• lots of bug fixes in the review pipeline: http auth, caching, app cache, suspend/resume.

• Will need lots of testing, and we know for sure there are still things borken. Some of these (gmail) are hard to diagnose, and we're hoping tackling simple sites/problems will give us easier traction.

• Redirects work still in progress.

• Crowder, bz, and I making progress on download manager.

• Bug 570867 - move AddCookiesToRequest logic from parent to child channel. [dwitte: could look at this next week. Pretty simple patch if someone wants to jump on it.]

Preference

• Bug 564535 -- Permission manager (dwitte). [dwitte: swamped atm unfortunately; patch is simple though, dougt might look]
