Accomplishments

• Don Cone
  • Dispositioned 83750, 84075, 75902, 68142
  • Looked at 68865, large PostScript output. Found that Netscape uses almost double the number of images.
  • Fixed bug 82624, large gray rectangle in starting at the iframe. Not checked in yet.
  • Working on 84017. A large gray rectangle can get drawn over entire page.

• Kevin McCluskey
  • Triaged Mozilla 0.9.2 bugs
  • 76722 - Gecko blocks the main thread for > 1 sec processing events. Finished patch. Tested performance on low-end 200Mhz Win95 machine and I noticed that the call to get the system time was slowing down page loads. I replaced the call to get the system time with a less costly -nonblocking call to PR_Interval_Now and the performance issue went away. Also tested latest patch on Linux and ran I-BENCH. waiting for reviews so I can check in the patch deactivated. The plan is to have a number of people try out the change by setting a pref, before I turn it on by default.
  • Completed focal review self assessment

People

• Chris McAfee has transitioned over to Chris Hoffman's release/tools/performance group.
• Ben - After my MM3 exam on Saturday, I'll have four weeks off school. As I am eligible to hold a J-1 visa until July 24, I went to the consulate general today to inquire about travel. They said they could create the appropriate paperwork for me by the end of the week. I plan to go back tomorrow morning with the right info. If all goes to plan that should give me a valid entrance permit on Friday of this week. I currently have a seat on an Air New Zealand flight from Auckland to LA on Monday June 18 (NZST) held. If everything goes smoothly I can be on this flight, and will be able to visit for about three weeks.

Daniel

• on vacation
  

Joe

• provided some ongoing support for mail reply performance work: measured performance of johnny's patches and landed his and my patches on a private branch for testing by mail folks.
• worked a bit more on the Fizilla mac os x dual cpu bug, because I can't help myself.
• tackled the high priority list bugs. First up was getting lists to paste more intelligently. To do this I had to fix 57477 and 57989. While doing this I also refactored the huge paste routine in nsHTMLDataTransfer.cpp quite a bit, which should further lower the amount of memory we need on the mac to do an optimized build (see bug 82612). This work also fixes a couple of unreported bugs in paste.

Kathy

• out sick 3 days :-(
• tested and reviewed changes, gave feedback to Joe
• tested and reviewed changes, gave feedback to Charley

• Triaged and did some preliminary debugging on various bugs.
• Sat down with anthonyd and discussed how to fix the remaining ExtractContents() and CopyContents problems.
• Spent some time trying to find the cause of an ABR I saw in Purify in nsTextFragment. I'm thinking this might be the cause of one of the crash bugs on my plate. (Bug 78980)

Mike

• working on 9.2 bug list
• doing reviews as needed
  

Simon

• Helped check in fix for Mac blocker bug 83669 (crash in Classic skin's History window).

• Got patches for a couple of Mac build scripts issues:
  • Add option to the Mac build scripts to pull by date (bug 84216)
  • Implement a fast update option in the mac scripts (bug 79280)

Summary

• Harish is on vacation through Wednesday.
• Johnny is in Seattle for the DOM meeting and gets back on Thursday.
• Mitch Stoltz and Jesse Ruderman have joined the XML/DOM team. We will now be known as the XML/DOM/Security team. Welcome, guys!
• The team did their focal reviews last week. Kudos to all of you for getting them to me in time for the Friday deadline!
• We currently have 5 PDT+ bugs within the XML/DOM team. The plan is to give them our highest priority.
• Mitch has 10 0.9.2 bugs on his plate most of which he considers rtm stoppers. He is working on them in decreasing order of priority and hopes to nail them. Due to the large number of bugs, though, there is a risk that some of them will not make the 6/26 0.9.2 freeze.
