GECKO
- We’ve hit zero blockers at least twice, BUT three code related blockers remain.
- All three are JS.
- Two of those have a fix and are in process of being finalized. Only one remains.
- We’re blocking on correctness issues, found mostly by JS fuzzers. One plus one should equal 2.
- Since most of the team has wrapped up 1.9.1 blockers, we’re focusing on (and have been for a while) future projects and the remaining planning. Watch dev-planning for conversations on the next release.
- Welcome Irina Calciu from CMU!
