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