I've got one risky patch still in review (bug 127250 "Body" filter for IMAP messages downloaded for offline use) that drivers may want to examine, as this patch needs to land a least a week before any code freeze due to its risk. Postponing until 3.1 would not break my heart, but it would increase the total work involved. I've got another few bugs in review that I am less concerned about though are important to me, including:

  • bug 496015, which adds the final hooks needed for minimal junk support in news.
  • bug 511131, which exposes the full search capability to users in the advanced search dialog.

I'll still be cleaning up issues as I find them in the areas that I work in plus helping out a little in blockers, but otherwise a lot of my attention will be shifting to getting my extensions re-released, which mostly serve as demonstrations of new back-end features of TB. I'm also starting to organize collections of junk mail in preparation to support a shared junk file using the features of bug 506397 "Support multiple spam corpus files".
