Weekly Status Report, W39/2007

Another week of hard work has passed, here's a summary of things I did in the SeaMonkey/Mozilla area in week 39/2007 (September 24 - 30):
  • Window Icons:
    As I posted here earlier, work has been started on replacing the old Mozilla window icons that were derived from Netscape Communicator with a new set that will make SeaMonkey fit in better with your taskbar, window title bars, desktop and other such areas in current windowing systems.
  • Branding Cleanup:
    In the icon thread in the newsgroup, someone mentined that the SeaMonkey browser is still called "Navigator" in many areas, and because of that I opened a bug for removing Navigator branding from the UI and already could check in the first part of it.
  • README Update:
    When I saw the Navigator branding in the README files we have, i saw that many areas of those are outdated and did a big overhaul of README files following that.
  • Profile Location Change:
    Following the wishes of many contributors and discussion with MoFo legal people, we switched our profile locations back from mozilla.org to Mozilla.
  • Source L10n:
    Testing the first SeaMonkey builds created from CVS-based localization, our German testers found the editor L10n missing from those builds, which I could now fix as well, thanks for pointing to that problem!
    I also got some nice changes in for making tinderbox locale repackaging more flexible so that we can make our main SeaMonkey tinderboxen to generate localized builds in the future.
    Additionally, I did some testing of dependent language packs for extensions, and found that everything works as expected. I also did an improved second WIP patch for CVS-based ChatZilla language packs following all that testing.
  • German L10n:
    I could keep the German localization for SeaMonkey mostly working all the time and could get the first people to test the repackaged builds - once again, thanks for helping with that!
  • MoFo ED Search:
    The Search Committee continued the first round of interviews for a new Mozilla Foundation Executive Director. We have an interesting range of personalities for candidates that will be presented to the community in later stages before the final decision.
  • Various Discussions:
    "Turbo mode" removal on trunk, community tinderboxen, profile switching, 1.1.x problems with read-only installs, login manager, shell service, stage reorg, UA string flamewar (again), etc.
Things are surely moving in the right direction for SeaMonkey 2. I think we probably will start figuring out soon what we need to do to be able to go Alpha, and what work we will need to complete for Beta and Final.
