Discussion Items
Project Status
CrashKill [tomcat/marcia]
- No formal crashkill meeting this week. Currently reviewing Alpha 5 and 3.6.4 data since builds just went out.
- CrashSpike in Crash-Stats for 3.6.4 - Investigation is still underway (Tomcat)
- https://intranet.mozilla.org/Socorro:Spike_Actions#Next_Steps has some info related to that. See Christian's latest email for the summary.
Accessibility Status Update [marco]
- Firefox 4
- Perf bugs bug 566103, bug 571532 and bug 541618 landed late last week. We're working through some slight regressions/crashers that are now showing up like bug 571459 and bug 571246.
- Also expecting another perf boost from bug 572394. This is currently in review.
- Overall, Firefox 4 will be noticeably faster for both Windows and Linux users using assistive technologies. page load times, updates on heavily dynamic pages etc.
- Note that much of this didn't make alpha 5, but will be in the next release (beta1?) and is currently being dog-fed on the nightlies.
- Firefox 3.6.4 build 7 is good to go from my end, as was to be expected.
