Hello, I'm following up on an action from our Firefox 20 Post-Mortem where it was discussed that it would be helpful to have a way to pref on a set of features that want to be in early Beta builds to garner feedback and audience reach but should not ship since they are not ready for public consumption.
Briefly reaching out on #developers identified that we could use a pre-processing flag in mozconfigs for early betas, something like #ifdef EARLY_BETA_ONLY_FEATURE in which case it seems to me the actions needed would be: * Create and publicize to engineering & product teams the location for listing feature prefs that need enabling in early beta, but should not ship * Create the EARLY_BETA_ONLY_FEATURE flag and make sure it enables those prefs accordingly until we no longer include them in later beta mozconfigs * Releng automation to switch/edit mozconfigs for earlier betas to check for this flag Thoughts? Feedback? People willing to take on any of these items? I'll file bugs on them soon once we've hashed out the best way to do this.
