Hopefully both sides will come together beautifully. 18:07:16 Also this week, we plan to discuss the Tor Launcher help text with linda and iry (anon-connection-wizard author). 18:07:21 I think it would be good for other people to participate in that discussion, although a time has not been set yet. 18:07:25 That's all for us. 18:07:47 thanks. who is next? 18:08:19 i guess i can go 18:08:36 last week i spent quite some time on release related things 18:08:46 we are not done yet but should be tomorrow if all goes well 18:08:57 i worked on cloudflare things 18:09:14 started to update the roadmap will all dependencies and flash it out 18:09:29 we'll look at the final version next week or the week thereafter 18:09:35 so everyone is on the same page 18:09:46 i started to review #23261 and #23262 18:09:59 i looked over a bunch of android applications 18:10:13 and then there got three fun bugs reported 18:10:26 i am still analyzing at least one of them 18:10:35 but i think nothing is badly broken 18:10:46 i think all of them are firefox bugs as well 18:11:05 two tickets are already filed in bugzilla 18:11:27 i started to think about updating our signing scripts together with boklm 18:11:30 this week: 18:11:34 more cloudflare work 18:11:39 releasing 7.0.8 18:11:59 i want to get to finish my security slider related bug review 18:12:08 i want to finalize the roadmpa 18:12:11 *roadmap 18:12:30 + finish reviewing #23261 and #23262 18:12:46 that's it 18:13:11 who is next? 18:13:14 * arthuredelstein can go 18:13:33 This past week I worked on regression tests for #23745. 18:13:39 And I worked more on ubsan patches. 18:13:47 I wrote up a proposal for experimenting with a nightly rebase. I will send this to tbb-dev soon for discussion. 18:14:00 Yesterday I discovered a banner bug of my own making and wrote a patch for #23949. Thanks to GeKo and boklm for building a new release. 18:14:43 Also I took two days off last week due to some unexpected things I had to take care of. 18:14:55 This week I hope to post the last patches for ubsan-enum, finish my #23745 mochitests and look into Intel MPX as well. 18:15:12 Also I can look at reviewing #23261 and #23262 if that will be useful. 18:15:34 That's it for me. 18:15:56 thanks. who else is here for an update? 18:16:22 I can go 18:16:33 I worked on MinGW some more, including tracing down some of the problems on why it doesn't run 18:16:38 (Really dmajor did that) 18:16:47 that was awesome fwiw! 18:17:05 One of them is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372958 and that one hasn't affected you before now 18:17:32 The other is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372958#c10 and I'm curious if this is the porblem that causes you to disable those two prefs 18:17:36 cause this is an old mingw bug 18:17:50 However, build still doesn't run, so I'm hoping dmajor will continue to look at it :) 18:18:37 Not related to Tor, we're landing fortify_source on the primary configure and the js configure; and the ability for web extensions to flip first party isolate and antifingerprinting 18:18:52 I also finally got a working patch for jit constant blinding. 18:19:23 I'm running perf tests on it this week, but our tests indicate it works, so you could consider backporting it and letting it hang out in alpha if you want 18:20:28 That's all I have I think 18:20:34 Besides those emails I sent :) 18:20:56 IIRC jacek said the direct2d one is caused by https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64384 18:21:10 but not sure whether he got convinced by dmajor that that's not the case 18:22:02 ah okay 18:22:07 alright, thanks tjr. who else is here for an update? 18:22:10 i will talk with dmajor 18:24:54 tjr: ok. forwarded you the mail jacek send me back then. might contains some details i missed 18:25:04 okay. disussion time 18:25:20 do we have anything we should talk about today? 18:26:06 i have one item: daylight saving time is coming up again 18:26:23 this weekened in europe and i believe the week thereafter in the US 18:26:41 i guess we'll have the meeting 1800 UTC again next week 18:26:50 and switch to 1900 UTC in the week thereafter? 18:26:57 does that work for everyone? 18:27:10 that works for me 18:27:27 works for me 18:27:28 me too 18:28:23 ok. then let's try that. i'll inform tbb-dev once we are closer to the switch 18:28:28 anything else for today? 18:29:22 I just want to mention that the patches for # #23261 and #23262 are large, so maybe one of GeKo or arthuredelstein should do a first review 18:29:35 yeah, i know :) 18:29:39 i am on it 18:29:46 (and maybe there will be a second pass / second review depending on what the first person finds) 18:29:48 :) 18:29:58 thx 18:30:12 thanks for coming to the meeting today and happpy tor-browser-improving *baf* 18:30:16 #endmeeting
