Weekly Status Report, W10/2009

Here's a summary of SeaMonkey/Mozilla-related work I've done in week 10/2009 (March 2 - 8, 2009):

• Release Management:
  Shipped SeaMonkey 2 Alpha 3 successfully (including putting up auto-update snippets using my N810 between singing a few songs in the local Karaoke bar), and tagged and built candidates for 1.1.15, the upcoming security and stability update to include fixes from Firefox 3.0.7 and Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 updates (please help testing those candidates).
  Most of my work this week was centered around that, including various version numbering fixes and website updates.
• SeaMonkey L10n:
  Could ship 13 experimental language packs for SeaMonkey 2.0 Alpha 3, compared to 20 languages available for 1.1.x this is quite nice for an Alpha, I think.
• Various Discussions:
  HTML5, multi-dictionary UE, (Un)forking of mailnews files, release schedules, MAOW Berlin, buildbot step abstraction, etc.

If you're German or living in Germany and interested in Add-Ons to any Mozilla-based software, you should really come to the Mozilla Add-Ons Workshop in Berlin on March 28. I'll be there talking about the Mozilla build system and about getting extensions to work on SeaMonkey 2 - the first time I'll give Mozilla talks in German language, actually!
