We've received email from Skype that 

"Rama Kurvakat who is a developer in Click-to-call team informed me today that there have been incompatible changes in the API in FF 17 beta 6. These changes in b6 which essentially invalidated all our testing effort on b5."
In email, Benjamin got this down to one of two bugs:

https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/b53dbef72a55
Bug 809865 - Disable inputmode. r=smaug a=lsblackk 

https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/74d121044a74
Bug 810726: Backout 34d30fa24371 for infinite loop problems. [r=roc][a=lsblakk] 

We need to determine which of these two is the issue, come up with a patch, and consider re-spinning.
Marcia is looking into this right now.
QA Contact: mozillamarcia.knous
Johns is writing a patch to undo the two IID changes.

We are testing in a VM now - I tested on different hardware and was not able to get it work even using FF 16.0.2,

The extension is not compatible with earlier versions (Fxbeta 4 or even beta 1).

Firefox 17b4 or b1.
I finally got it work in a Win XP VM in 16.0.2, but when trying to move to Firefox 17b5 it is not installing the extension.

As Juan notes, it isn't compatible when you install it in Firefox 17, so it makes it difficult to test the breakage they are citing between B5 and B6.

Thanks for testing. Even still, let's move forward with the respin since Skype won't push out a newer update for a week (thus making click-to-call non-functional on FF17) and we suspect that other binary add-ons may be affected (Yandex/Bandoo instability, for instance).

Restore MozColumnFill attribute to nsIDOMCSS2Properties as [noscript] to avoid IID change

r=dbaron (though I'd like bz to look at this as well when he gets back from dinner)

Given that bug 753517 is in Firefox 17, I'm not too worried about what these methods do.

BZ won't be back for a few hours and we need to go to build to hit our Tuesday ship. Let's land on mozilla-release.

Can someone theorize a list of add-ons for QA to test overnight?

Given that these properties are not declared pure virtual, this looks lovely!

We're going to be pushing this out as part of our next ESR release, 17.0.1esr. ESR17 usage will be very low this cycle, given the qualification period necessary by most major deployments. Please target FF17.0 mainline for the time being.

John, sorry for not mentioning it earlier - can you please land this to the ESR17 relbranch as well? There have been some security landings to mozilla-esr17 default that we are not intending to ship in respin.

Do we have a compatible version of Skype to test this with?
The version of Skype Click-to-Call found here http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/click-to-call/windows/ still doesn't work on Firefox 17.0.1 (Build ID: 20121128204232): the phone numbers aren't highlighted and can't be phoned.

It doesn't work on Chrome either.

I cannot install Skype CTC at all on FF 17.0.1 on Win XP and Win 8.

I forgot to mention that I've tested on Windows 7 32-bit.

When starting the installer here [http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/click-to-call/windows/], on the specified OSs, the installation process goes to the end without giving any errors. Yet, when starting Chrome and Firefox, the add-on shows up on Chrome but it doesn't appear anywhere for Firefox (not in Extensions folders, Add-ons Manager etc).

We have not received a newer version from Skype. As long as 17.0.1 is behaving no differently than 17.0, we'll be in good shape for when Skype does release their latest version.

Okay, we've at least confirmed that. I'm dropping this from the 17.0.1 test plans to remove confusion. We'll still track for verification once we have a compatible version to test.
