we need to get some UI behind xforms-load.  Too restrictive w/o it.

I'd like to see the following bugs: bug 332945, bug 330641, bug 334503. All bugs serves to provide calendar widget support for xul.

I (again, personally) would like to aim for a release in a month's time. I need to get an overview of the bug priority first.

I think again month is pertty enough for them :). Judging by bugs (f.x. bug 334503) peoples try to use datepicker.

I think that 0.6 should include a lot of repeat fixes.

Comment 6

[Allan Beaufour]

Ok, We talked a bit about "the grand plan" on IRC last night.

There seemed to be three issues:
* focus on stability vs. new features
* get closer to frozen API (interfaces)
* fix repeat

The main "issue" is that API is dependent on a lot of Surkov's XUL (new features) work. I also have a strong interest in getting the API ready for adding SVG support. So I think we should try to get some of the last XUL issues fixed, which hopefully will get the APIs more or less ready for further languages.

I've tried marking enhancement bugs as such now, so real bugs should be more visible.

What do we need from the schema-side to get bug 278762 squished? Doron?

278762 is trivial, just need to validate the submission document.

The tricky parts left are:
  - support include (bug 334956) in schema (this is part of schema loader, which is part of the core).
  - External Instance documents can include their own schema file (bug 333008)

And obviously adding more types and finishing off the complex type work.  I'll be working on the tricky stuff first.

I'm adding bug 331984, bug 332005 and 315712 since they block 11 testsuite testcases between them.  Shouldn't take too long to knock them out, either, I wouldn't think.

1_8_0 is up-to-date with trunk now. Main problems left are:
1) The principal patch (bug 338451)
2) Getting mac nightly builds (bug 339198)
3) There is one test that fails on 1.8.0, and not on trunk (to do with repeat index, of course):

[aaronr]

bug 326530 isn't in 1.8.x, yet.  Approvals necessary Doron?

Comment 11

[aaronr]

bug 331897 was regressed and will be fixed by bug 341672.  Should that go into 0.6 or not?

Comment 12

[alexander :surkov (:asurkov)]

Why is this bug still open? Should we move blocking bugs into 0.7?

Comment 13

[alexander :surkov (:asurkov)]

Moving dependency on bug 331984, bug 334937 and bug 339198 to bug 334603. Marking bug as fixed since I guess no more changes will go into 0.6 version.
