Lightning to Thunderbird Integration

See https://calendar.etherpad.mozilla.org/thunderbird-integration

  • As underpass has pointed out repeatedly (thanks for your patience!) , we need to rewrite / heavily modify the lightning articles on support.mozilla.org. let me know irc: rolandtanglao on #tb-support-crew or rtanglao AT mozilla.com OR simply start editing the articles

  • bug 1147207 - l10n repacks will not work yet. Trying to persuade glandium to fix it and need to make sure it will actually include a localized build with the packager fixed.

Round Table

wsmwk

  • got tracking flags sorted out bug 1144795
  • mange ship of 37.0b1
  • update topcrash list
  • (fire up newish thinkpad)
  • monitored chemspill/security issues of last week bug 1144991,bug 1144988, 1145255 bug 1145255
  • we should educate ourselves, document, and perhaps reassess (and get standard8's historical knowledge of) the security impacts of plugins and addons so that we can respond to future security events in an intelligent and timely manner. Like which ones load web content (eg Thunderbrowse)? (Archaeopteryx Found 854 matching lines in 375 addon files for contentTab)

Jorg K

  • rfc2047 headers bug 1141446, patch proposed (1 line change), waiting for Joshua Cranmer
