pospeselr: Last week(s): #seattle-snowmagedeon2019
- built snowman
- fell on ice - snow in the eyes - made a custom build for pili and antonella with #25658 changes - filed #29554 (about:preferences links do not function properly, needed for #25658) - most of the way done with #25658 - built alpha builds; a bit of a shit-show as i686 linux refuses to build on my machines
- boklm: I neglected this a bit to focus on getting pili's macos build out, but everything matches on my end apart from the macos mar-tools (which doesn't quite seem right, given that all the other macos builds match)
This week: - tonight! upoad macos mar tools file for boklm diff - uplift #29120 (neglected this one last week) - get a patch up for #25658
- hopefully fix #29554
GeKo: Today: - started to cut down my backlog - reviewed #29759 - wrote patches for #27210 and #29467 This week: - more backlog cutting down - reviews and help with mobile work - release prep (hopefully) - new month team admin stuff
