Agenda

Thunderbird:Shredder a2

    • bug 434642
    • address book refactoring waiting for sr
    • swapping urls between mozilla.com and MoMo ready to go
    • Mystery Thunderbird Mac bug (memory mgmt issue)
    • Hanging message search term awaiting dmose review
  • 4 Nominated blockers
    • davida will over those today

davida met with MoCo build folks TB 2.016 be built using build automation, after FF 2.016 and 3.0 A1 build go out.

3.0a2 builds might start July 8, if build team can fix some problems. Should we just branch or delay code freeze? Would important bug fixes make a2 that otherwise wouldn't? We wouldn't have a long code freeze either way. Standard8 - would it delay moving to hg? Resolution - go ahead as scheduled.

Rebranding from MoCo to Mozilla Messaging will happen in A2 but it will probably still be called Thunderbird instead of Shredder because there doesn't seem to be activity on the bug. Standard8 will investigate.

I've been focusing on issues with virtual folders, plus NEW flag and biff notification. Some of these require reorganization to work, for example bug 428427 to fix unread counts on virtual folders. Lately I've been trying to spin off several small bugs to try to reduce the size of a large bug where I will propose some major reorganization of NEW message flag management - bug 441932 This is an enabling bug that will allow progress of filter-driven biff, and increased similarity between virtual folders and regular folders.

Landed bugs:

  • bug 414179 Add junkpercent support to nsIMsgSearchTerm.
  • bug 438805 Port junkCommands.js to Seamonkey
  • bug 324953 Run Junk Mail Controls (on selected messages) broken
  • bug 441916 Consolidate UpdateSummaryTotals into nsMsgDBFolder.
