Someone should do something about the rocks on the road.
Oh, and I think this is a blocker... literally ;)

This is the tentative solution we came up with at lunch: 1. Take a bus down from Whistler to rock slide. 2. Get out of bus. 3. Walk over rock slide (may require additional walkways). 4. Get into waiting bus. 5. Get to Vancouver. Those who drove themselves will have to take the long way.

I am arranging for the 74 bears. However, it will be rather short notice, and people are the best bait, so I am thinking of using IE developers, but they are in short supply, due to this weird upstart browser with a very weird name Fire...something, oh yeah, firefox. Also running into issues with PETA.

Since this bug effects only a small portion of Firefox users, proposing this as WONTFIX. Perhaps interested parties can create an extension?
Comment 36•16 years ago
|

We've got an acceptable workaround (bears!) but to prevent recurrences, recommend scheduling all future summits in locations that have good routes to at least two major airports.
Comment 37•16 years ago
|
||
Who says WONTFIX? Mike has volunteered to get Float planes for everyone. And, I hope to have about 10 IE devs for the bait, so we will have two workarounds for this.

Of course I hope the IE folks coperate. And you wont get any more cakes for FF4.

Comment 106•16 years ago

Nope, doesn't work for me. Tried the other workaround with the float plane but wasn't able to make the flight, and the flight after that was full (Jay got the last seat). I am trying the other work-around now (fly into LA on the last Alaska-Airlines seat, drive up to SF!).
Comment 107•16 years ago
|
||
There was also a regression for us while using the workaround with on of the nightly buses: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows Whistler; en-CA; rv:1.9.1a2pre) Gecko/2008080104 Minefield/3.1a2pre ID:2008080103. Nightly testers recognized a hang at the airport for several hours because of delayed flights. But after a lot of team work @mozcamp we were able to identify the cause and hopefully everyone was able to leave Vancouver. But anyway, the performance of the workaround was brilliant. Solving it has only taken 6.5 hours instead of the estimated 8 hours - even it was a bit risky sometimes. Thanks to anyone who has worked on that!
Comment 108•16 years ago

Workaround of the 11am bus worked brilliantly, but now still transiting at an airport, only 6 of a 36 hour total journey left to go!
