It's fine to keep it as-is for now, but I think the goal should be to get rid of it (and possibly Tech Evangelism :: Addons too) for the same reasons as Benjamin noted in his first email. Seem like most of this component's original intent (naming aside) is covered by those new components. Compatib

Will Firefox :: Extension Compatibility also be rolled into this new :: Other component? (There are ~700 open bugs there still, most of which look pretty stale.) Justin On Mon, May 2, 2016 at 11:53 AM, Benjamin Smedberg wrote: > There used to be a bugzilla.mozilla.org product called "Plugins".

Andrew, can you do a pass over the bugs since Jan 1st and, and let's rename this FFx::Add Ons Compatablity so that it's clear it's not plugins. On Mon, May 2, 2016 at 2:56 PM, Andrew McKay wrote: > Looks like that would fall on me. After a quick look at some of the > bugs, its seems like its a h

MattN mentioned there's also a "Tech Evangelism :: Addons" which is for bugs from add-ons where we aren't going to change anything in the product but we may contact the author or blog about the addon-compatablty change. I need to see how busy that one is (I would imagine that it it's being used for

Looks like that would fall on me. After a quick look at some of the bugs, its seems like its a holding pen for bugs that need to be passed on to other areas or back to the add-on developer themselves (which often means closing them). On Mon, May 2, 2016 at 2:01 PM, Emma Humphries wrote: > Pasting

As I understand it, Firefox: Extension Compatibility was a component where we made Firefox product changes to support extension compat. But it's true that most of the things that get filed there are "extension X broke in Firefox version N". I expect WebExtensions to make this better, but in the me

Changes to bugzilla "plugins" product

2016-05-02 Thread Benjamin Smedberg
There used to be a bugzilla.mozilla.org product called "Plugins". This product has been renamed "External Software Affecting Firefox" and its component structure has been greatly simplified. It is usually not helpful to track defects in 3rd-party software in the Mozilla bug tracker. The only time
