Unfortunately, Kathy and I will miss today's Tor Browser team meeting due to a conflict. Here is the our status report:
This past week, Kathy and I created a new patch for #16620 ("Transform window.name handling into Firefox patch") that closely mimics the behavior of the old JavaScript implementation. We then revised it again (and added another automated test case) after Georg found a problem. The fix made it into 5.5a4 at the last minute. A big "thank you" to Georg and Arthur for their reviews.
We also completed some code reviews in support of the pending Tor Browser releases.
We filed #17442 ("adjust or remove updater cert pinning"). We need feedback; please comment in the ticket.
This week, we plan to start working on these tasks: - Review patch for #9659 "Optimistic Data SOCKS variant leads to loop" - #16940 "Load (only) local change notes after a Tor Browser update" - #17344 "language prompt should enumerate available langpacks" - #17313 "Crash in Canvas patch seen on OS X Tor Browser"
We will also help with any issues that arise with the releases that are planned for this week.
