Whiteboard

Key challenges here include:

1. Figuring out how to get security updates to flow to the desktop in a timely manner

2. Managing window decorations to integrate with the desktop (consider csd in Maverick as well)

http:// code.google. com/p/chromium/ issues/ detail? id=18497 , see comment #7, needs someone who understands the WM to comment

3. Making the application menu work correctly

4. Handling translations

5. Making it fit on the CD

seb128, 2010-08-30: dropping appmenu and standard icons bugs from the tracking

seb128, 2010-05-27: should we have work items about the technical tasks for dx changes? We also said we would revisit the decision during the cycle to know if we stick on it, that should be documented

om26er, 2010-06-25: I have attached the three bug reports which are linked upstream. these include using global menus, csd and related to theme.

chrisccoulson, 2010-08-16: In light of https:/ /developer. mozilla. org/En/ Developer_ Guide/Interface _Compatibility (specifically the last point), we shouldn't waste efforts anymore on trying to split xulrunner, as it looks like libmozjs as a separate entity will probably be disappearing entirely in the future (and merged in to libxul). What will most likely happen is that we will have to maintain spidermonkey as an entirely separate module to support couchdb (and gnome-shell)

seb128, 2010-08-20: changing the workitems target to maverick and not beta since chromium will not be in main this cycle
