Highlights
- Lots of bug fixes when we integrated the new version of libical for
the backend. This fixed a lot of problems for us, especially with
repeating events.
- Added in the ability to create advanced repeating events. You can
now set an event to repeat on every 3rd Monday of the month (for eg.) as
well as on the 20th of the month (for eg.). You can also have weekly
events repeat on certain weekdays, like events that happen on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday every week.
- UI fixes but we're still not 100% up to date with the latest XUL stuff.
- An Installer for Linux only. We're working hard on getting it up
for Windows too, but need help.
Help Needed
- The calendar team needs help from people to work on XUL front end
and with installers to people on Windows and Mac can install and use the
latest calendar. Join irc.mozilla.org on #calendar to help out.

Highlights
- Landed the Address Book Outliner branch.

you display a card with an address it will add a button that will take you
to the MapQuest map for that address.

Performance and Footprint
- Most of the mail team is going to focus on performance
in 0.9.8
- Look here for the performance page.
- Look here for current performance numbers.
- 3 Pane
- Navin checked in the fix to make folder navigation faster.
- Navin made multiple delete faster.
- Message Display
- David and Cavin worked on preventing certain attachments from
being downloaded more than once when displaying a message.
- David changed mozTXTToHTMLConv.cpp and its clients so that it
no longer allocates memory when no conversion is required (which is true
in the large majority of the calls). Converted it to take 8 bit characters,
which gets rid of a roundtrip from 8 bit to unicode back to 8 bit. Reduced
some of the code bloat.
- Address Book
- Footprint
- Navin fixed leaking name and description on loading each plugin.
- Navin fixed leaking author comparison upon canceling news messages
.
- Navin fixed some leaking char* in mime on reading messages
- Navin looked into bloat we're seeing when typing.
- Jean-Francois fixed a leak while building the attachments list.
