527021 - Need a details page for the Thunderbird 3.0 Major Upgrade

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Thunderbird, defect)

Description

[Philippe M. Chiasson (:gozer)]

When we are going to offer the major upgrade to 3.0, we are going to need a details page, shown by the updater at offer time.

See http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.5/details/index.html for the Firefox 3.5 MU offer as an example.

1) our own version of this page.

2) Localised versions of this page.

to be able to offer a major update.

Therefore setting as blocking TB 3.

will this be offered as a page included in a XUL dialog like Firefox ? If so, do you know the size in pixels of the frame this page will be in? This is useful data for localized pages.

If you have the information from Firefox 2, then it should be exactly the same size and process. I'm hoping to have some major updates on a channel to test in a few hours.

we didn't have this information from Firefox 2

I had to measure the window sizes manually (via screen dump then measuring), but here they are (width x height):

Mac: 373 x 175
Windows: 294 x 199
Linux: 383 x 257

Best to play on the safe side when doing update pages.

Details page updated.

Pascal, can you raise a bug(s) for getting this page to the l10n teams please? Getting significant l10n coverage of the page will block an automatic update push.
