Discussion Items

• Sync testing and dependencies (juanb, tracy, tchung)
  • Any blocking issues found?
    • discussion look for scenarios where users tried out minefield, and decided to go back to 3.5/3.6/fx4b7. their accounts will be broken, and will need to regenerated a sync key
    • Master password set, timing will break cause sync server looks at an empty password manager (no sync key), and not find anything cause its trying to validate the HMAC
    • create a handful of test accounts from various base versions. record the original username/passwords/sync key. Run those against staging each time, but this way we have a baseline to test against. Q: can we reset these all back to a starting point after we sanitized it?
    • Messaging to support. we should work with cheng and michael to cover a list of known sync issues that will cause problems to the public. (Tracy) to make a list of notes and known bugs and send it to cheng.
