Weekly Status Report, W31/2007

I could get done some interesting things done this week - here's a summary of SeaMonkey/Mozilla-related issues I worked on in week 31/2007 (July 30 - August 5):
  • Releases:
    Your probably read about it, we managed to fix a few nasty security vulnerabilities with our SeaMonkey 1.1.4 release, I spent lots of time on that - with great help from the community!
  • Passwordmanager conversion:
    We had lots of talk about this - we want to turn to toolkit's login manager, but mailnews still needs wallet, mainly because login manager misses an interface it needs.
    Because the wallet password manager and login manager listen to the same preference, we've had two prompts for saving passwords come up on logging into websites, so we needed to disable building most of login manager again for the time being.
  • Themes and RTL support:
    Along with the wallet replacement work, the issue of RTL support came up in the form of browser autocomplete and we came into a more general RTL discussion along with that. It would be nice to support RTL languages better in SeaMonkey, which will need some modifications to the remaining parts of the Classic theme - ideally even to Modern, but Classic comes first. Any help on that would be appreciated!
    Additionally, I once again did update my EarlyBlue theme to work with the current trunk of SeaMonkey.
  • Cleanup of old xpfe code:
    Steffen Wilberg has noted that xpinstall/standalone had been abandoned for a few years already, so I removed it from the CVS repository.
  • German L10n:
    Finally got the editor L10n sync checked in, as well as some security string updates in core triggered by our discussion for German.
  • Lightning Calendar:
    As I mentioned earlier, I turned on Lightning for SeaMonkey this week. Be sure to read my blog post about it if you're interested in that topic.
  • Statistics:
    I worked on and posted a few statistics here on the blog, I hope they gave some good insights about what is going on :)
  • (Undisclosed Project):
    After some further work on it, my SeaMonkey-related business project is ready for an announcement, which will follow this post within hours.
  • Various Discussions:
    Current and future build tools, FF3 download manager UI, automatic update system, Vista compatibility, etc.

I tied to increase the frequency of blog posts to not only have status reports - I hope this is helpful even in the holiday season. Of course, one never knows about that...
