General Plans

  • Camino 1.1 Alpha 1
  • Fixing Core-caused breakage in Camino in a timely fashion
    • Time it took to get biesi's patch (super)reviewed [4 days], to get autocomplete fix (super)reviewed, to get chardet fix (super)reviewed
    • Funky select widgets, missing trunk talkback are out of our hands
    • How can we improve? The problems will only increase as xpfe dies....
  • What about putting l10ns into Camino source repository? (by Marcello)
    • I'd like to spend most of my efforts on the community side of Caminol10n, trying to make it better and more productive. Since I already maintain (in a very clumsy way) a cvs repository of l10n packages and text files, why not put them among Camino's source, so that the ML package might be built directly from that place?
    • Pros:
      • I shouldn't work on building and distributing, and I would not be a bottleneck as sometimes happened in the past
      • Unified Camino build more in line with Mac OS X
    • Cons:
      • The build system would need be changed
      • Moving the bottleneck to coordinating cvs checkins
      • Out-of-date translations:
        • Stale files on development branches (e.g., an out-of-date BrowserWindow.nib will hork that language) [could be worked around by keeping nightlies En-only]
        • Non-updated l10ns still in cvs across branch changes or emergency new strings on a stable branch (e.g., Pirate 1.0.x never gets updated for 1.x, or in the event string changes are needed for 1.0.x+1)
    additional pros/cons in italics by sardisson, who'd really like to see a unified Camino build nonetheless
