Weekly Status Report, W20/2011

Here's a short summary of SeaMonkey/Mozilla-related work I've done in week 20/2011 (May 16 - 22, 2011):

• Mozilla work / crash-stats:
  With the beta channel now going live, we need better handling of stats per build in Socorro, so I tried to get topcrasher and crashes per user reports that respect this into focus. Until Socorro has solutions for those, we'll need to care to have some intermediate solutions to get our info.
  I continued to look into rising crashes using my experimental reports, when I wondered if we should look into mobile as well, I realized that Fennec reports are not in CSVs, which should be changed.
• SeaMonkey Build System, Releases:
  Helped getting bouncer ready for 2.1 RC2 and final, took a look at the errors we've seen in the RC2 build process and filed some AMO bugs to make it ready for the release.
• Firefox cleanup patches:
  I updated my patches for places library cleanup, search code and sidebar cleanup, as well as searchbar and engine manager improvements for Firefox, hoping they finally can get reviews and land soon. Same for the patch to make removed-files locale-aware.
• SeaMonkey L10n:
  Once again I did more sign-offs for 2.1, so RC2 will be able to ship with even newer and more locales than RC1 did.
• German L10n:
  I updated trunk for SeaMonkey strings that changed, so that any uplifts to aurora or beta can be done more easily and be localized.
• Various Discussions/Topics:
  SeaMonkey and release "trains", SeaMonkey versioning, "Nugzilla" event, tree rules, view source future, web application runtimes and memory usage, MeeGo N900 DE testing, etc.

Sorry, this update goes public very late - I had started it early last week but dragged it along all until today, where the next one is due. Still, I hope to get that other one still out very soon now and then be up to date again.
