Hi All, This week we'll be rolling FxA train-64 to production. The major new feature in this train is "sign-in confirmation emails", which I wrote about in a separate email:
https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/dev-fxacct/2016-June/001940.html But there's lots of other goodness in there as well! Here are some of the highlights: * There's been a lot of re-working of the visual style of the site in order to more closely match the overall Mozilla style guide. * We can now send reminder emails to users who have failed to verify their Firefox Account. We'll be rolling this out gradually and experimenting with the details of timing and messaging to try to improve the verification rate. * We no longer rate-limit the resending of emails by silently ignoring repeated requests; instead we rely on customs-server and its explicit "attempt limit exceeded" error message. * The account-routes tests in fxa-auth-server have been substantially refactored to reduce duplication and boilerplate (I don't usually call out test changes in these release emails, but trust me, this one was noteworthy!) * Accounts with a large number of device records should no longer cause us to block the nodejs event loop while sending push notifications. We've also added metrics-gather to detect such accounts. * The first-run flow can now use certain special values of the utm_campaign query parameter to trigger subscriptions to custom marketing flows in basket. * We're deploying an experiment to test whether the "show password" button provides value to users. * There have been further improvements to RTL text handling. * We're now able to use .woff2 fonts, which should reduce the initial download size. * We will no longer send a post-verification email to users signing up through OAuth reliers like AMO or TestPilot; previously we would send an email that's very sync-specific and potentially confusing. As always, you can dig into the details in the changelogs for each individual repo: https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-content-server/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-auth-server/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-basket-proxy/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-customs-server/blob/master/CHANGELOG Cheers, Ryan _______________________________________________ Dev-fxacct mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-fxacct
