· Firefox 3: Tree in lockdown for RC1 · New Tinderbox trees for LeakTest and UnitTest · Ars Technica reviews Fennec · Mozilla Websites, Web Analytics and Privacy Firefox 3: Tree in lockdown for RC1 On April 8th, the Firefox tree entered a lockdown period in preparation for delivering Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1. The same process will be used for this release as for past betas — the blocker lists will be driven to zero, and only patches with explicit approval will be allowed to land in order to more tightly control potential for regressions. For more information, please see the DevNews blog post. New Tinderbox trees for LeakTest and UnitTest Chris Cooper and Dave Miller recently added two new trees to tinderbox.mozilla.org: UnitTest and LeakTest. As you might guess, these new trees will house the staging environments for the unittest machinery, JavaScript test machines, and the leaktest machinery. You should look there if you’re looking for something on MozillaTest that is missing. While he was at it, Chris added two new machines to to the Firefox tinderbox tree to improve our unittest coverage on Windows. Named qm-win2k3-02 and qm-win2k3-03, these new machines should provide added information and help diagnose single-machine failures. For more information, see Chris’ weblog post. Ars Technica reviews Fennec Ars Technica has reviewed the first pre-alpha test builds of Fennec, Mozilla’s initial mobile Firefox prototype. “With Firefox 3 right around the corner, Mozilla’s top lizard wranglers are turning their attention to the next step in their plans for world browser domination. The Mozilla Mobile initiative, which was first announced last October, has reached the functional prototype stage. The developers have released pre-alpha test builds of a mobile Firefox prototype, codenamed Fennec, which we tested and discussed with Mozilla Mobile director Jay Sullivan.” Read the rest of article over at Ars Technica. Mozilla websites, web analytics and privacy Mitchell Baker has written an article about the application of web analytics tools to Mozilla websites. “We live in a world of data; we should be thinking carefully about that data and its impact. [A] core of the Mozilla community is intensely focused on privacy and the individual person’s ability to understand and control personal information. With this in mind, I’ve put together a discussion of a particular data-gathering proposal, together with the safeguards that make me comfortable with it.” You can read the rest of this article at Mitchell’s weblog. Since the release of addons.mozilla.org 3.2, the AMO team has been actively reviewing the feedback users have sent in through a number of channels. In response to some of that feedback, Mike Morgan has posted an explanation of the rationale and trade-offs made with the new design and its attempts to balance the needs of various audiences AMO has to address — first-time users, seasoned experts, and add-on authors and publishers. Basil Hashem has also written a post about the feedback the team has received, summarizing the top concerns they’ve heard and outlining plans for the next iterations of the AMO site.
Yahoo! se lance sur les traces de Google dans la gestion de statistiques avec Yahoo! Web Analytics ( actuellement en BETA fermee ) A premiere vue, du moins selon les screens fournis sur le site, Yahoo! Web Analytics est comparable a Google Analytics mais propose un petit plus puisque nous devrions pouvoir avoir les stats en temps reels ce que Google en fait pas actuellement ( il y a toujours un decalage entre l'instant "t" et les stats presentees )
· fennec Voila, mon collegue Jay Sullivan vient de "lacher le morceau" a ArsTechnica, qui publie dont Mozilla Fennec takes browser fight to handhelds. En gros, Firefox mobile va profiter des progres tres importants realises par Firefox 3 dans les domaines de la consommation memoire et des performances. En effet, sur une plateforme mobile, qui dispose de moins de memoire qu'un ordinateur portable ou de bureau, et d'un processeur moins puissant, ce sont deux criteres tres importants. De meme, XULRunner semble promis a un grand avenir en etant porte sur les mobiles. Despite the early state of development, Fennec has some impressive features that reveal significant potential. The biggest win in Fennec's feature set is support for inertial scrolling. Fennec also includes a single-click bookmarking system that is a lot like the one found in Firefox 3. Other advanced features, like support for the AwesomeBar, are planned but not yet implemented. Malgre le fait qu'on en soit encore au tout debut, Fennec a demontrer plusieurs fonctionnalites impressionnante qui laissent presager d'un fort potentiel. Le plus significatif pour l'instant est le defilement a inertie. Fennec integre ausi un systeme de marque-page a un seul clic qui ressemble beaucoup a celui de Firefox 3. D'autres fonctionnalites avancees telle que l'AwesomeBar sont planifiees mais pas encore implantees. Pour l'instant, Fennec tourne uniquement sur Nokia N810. J'ai hate d'avoir une version pour mon N800! La premiere version alpha de Fennec est prevue pour debut Aout 2008. · Fennec: la version mobile de Firefox se precise; · Mozilla Fennec: version pre-alpha du navigateur mobile; · Fennec veut survivre au Safari; · Firefox Mobile six fois plus rapide que le navigateur Nokia sur le N810; · Firefox en version mobile six fois plus rapide;
