• AMO is still progressing steadily but slowly. Still need to get versioncheck service working but that's the last of the technical work on my side.
  • Discussing with AMO team how to handle themes and dictionaries, since the latter is not planning to move to webextensions any time soon?
  • Also discussing about how to handle the deletion of appropriate add-ons(Firefox only) and the transition.
• Added gettext repo for thunderbird.net and filed Bug 1442968 to get thunderbird.net added to Pontoon.
• Added calendar page to thunderbird.net so that it can be removed from mozilla.org
• Fixed a number of small website bugs and provided feedback to contributors on github issues and stuff.
  • Btw we are getting a little bit of contributor engagement on the website(thanks to Ryan I suspect)!
