Quantum Flow Engineering Newsletter #8 Firefox 53.0.2 released

https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/04/19/first-big-bytes-project-quantum/ 53 is only the beginning Firefox 57 is the target for another few big chunks of quantum.

Quantum Flow Engineering Newsletter #7

The DevEdition / Aurora was meant to be a stabilization channel with approximately 10x the users of Nightly. So the cycle was meant to be Nightly - Experimental changes, rapid development Aurora - Stabilization phase, focus is on fixing crashes in new features before beta Beta - Polish phase - only ship-ready or nearly-ship-ready features here. Final stabilization for the release base But the numbers goal didn't work out and it makes more sense to eliminate an unneeded stabilization phase and just hold features in nighty until they're ready to move to beta, so they can be iterated on more quickly. In the long run it will probably result in features reaching release about six to eight weeks earlier than they would have.

Quantum Flow Engineering Newsletters: #3 #4 #5 #6 These weeks in firefox.... #13 #14 #15 (I'm mentioned in this one!) Release notes for nightly.... https://blog.nightly.mozilla.org/2017/04/24/release-notes-for-nightly/ Though I'll be honest, I used to make the MozillaZine nightly threads and they're much more comprehensive if you're interested in nitty-gritty. A user by the name of Josa now maintains these threads here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=3029746&sid=50ac71e408503d819c4a7cbcf2da5d10 Out of process web extensions now available for testing: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions/Testing-out-of-process Fathom: a framework for understanding web pages: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/04/fathom-a-framework-for-understanding-web-pages/ AMO on android has a new look: https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2017/04/11/amo-new-look-android/ Also, Aurora as a branch is no more. The release model has been changed from Nightly- > Aurora -> Beta -> Release to Nightly -> Beta -> Release. Dev Edition users migrated to beta on desktop and aurora users on Android migrated to Nightly.

Jsyk the way Firefox is designed, dragging icons off of the ui into the customization panel for things like Pocket actually prevents the code that powers it from even running. Not true for all ui elements but I'm pretty sure it's true for any "system add-on" that they ship (or ever will ship... Dev tools come to mind as I believe they're breaking the dev tools out into a webextension)

Agreed. Day month year doesn't list nicely alphabetically 01012016 01022017 01102016 01152017 01172016 versus 20160101 20160110 20160117 20170102 20170115 as an example. I think the date format is fairly non ambiguous and makes it easier to read the version number programmatically

Tested in my nightly and putting in moz: takes you to https://blog.mozilla.org/opendesign/ you dont have to follow it with //a, moz:abc123 works just the same

I get what they're going for with Moz://a but I think it looks pretty ugly. At least it's not that horrible IBM-blue from the mockups a few months ago.

I have never had CCleaner interfere with Steam or VAC, and I have written/use several Steam entries that go beyond the standard cleaning. Some more info for the developers would be helpful for triaging your bug, for example your OS and build number (you can get this by running winver). Do you run any firewall or antivirus programs? Is csgo.exe allowed in them? Be sure to check that CCleaner isn't deleting a firewall rule you need. Are you opted into the Steam beta client? Is steam/CSGO running when you run CCleaner? You should be sure to exit both Steam and CSGO prior to running CCleaner to make sure it has properly released any locks on files it may have or want.
