Weekly Status Report, W47/2008
Here's a summary of SeaMonkey/Mozilla-related work I've done in week 47/2008 (November 17 - 23, 2008):
Sorry for writing this up so late and not having any results for the SeaMonkey project goals for which I have started a thread some time ago. Things are moving forward with interesting speed in the last few days and together with some private meetings that took quite some time away from normal activities this week. I hope to catch up with all this soon.
With the reimplementation of Find As You Type (FAYT) with our old statusbar UI but based on the toolkit code, the typeaheadfind story found a positive turn (see the bug) even there's room for more improvements, but the important base is laid. Also, the foundation for toolbar customization has been built on our side as well as in toolkit.
Looks like we're on a good way towards SeaMonkey 2, even if there's still some work to do. We're excited to be nearing our next checkpoint on that road with Alpha 2 very soon now!
- Build System:
Another build system sync could land this week, as well as a static build fix that brings us nearer to the goal of shipping static instead of shared builds for SeaMonkey 2.
I filed a bug for the next, small build system sync and created a patch.
The bug about improvements for the Firefox prepare-upload-locale target now has a patch, as I managed to find the time for porting my SeaMonkey work back to that other browser.
Another patch I hacked up this week is the L10n Makefile restructuring for all three comm-central apps. - SeaMonkey Buildbots:
The buildbot 0.7.9 upgrade now is done on the last slave, so that all slaves and both masters run this new version.
I also adjusted leak thresholds once again, hiding even more of our EM RDF datasource leak. - Places History:
Some more iterations of the places history patch because of review comments, I hope we can get a first version of this in for Alpha 3. - Misc Development:
The last step of website URL display for feed messages could make it into the tree this week, so SeaMonkey users can now actually open those websites from the header view.
I also filed a bug and patch on a superfluous theme import in a toolkit overlay. - L10n:
European Portuguese and Sinhala build ChatZilla language packs as well now on trunk.
One last suite/ string cleanup by Vlado landed as well. - Various Discussions:
To fork or to not fork mailnews UI files, 1.9.1 branching, EV UI, new cert error page, toolbar customization, connecting feed reader and detection for alpha 2, mailnews de-rdf, -moz-image-region and Mac menus, mailnews and security exceptions, new FAYT, etc.
