578356 - Add Mobile beta version history to mobile_details

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Input :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

We have version histories for Firefox [1] and Thunderbird in product_details.

We use this information on Fx Input to show a list of valid beta versions.

As we are about to add Mobile support, we need the same thing for Fennec. For the current release, we'll be fine just showing the current beta version, but once subsequent betas are release, we must not remove the older ones from the list.

Alex, as you started the mobile details library, can you help us out there (might need to CC someone who knows what betas have yet existed and when they were released)?

Thanks!

Are we still doing this?

Comment 2

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Yup, Input will still lose its histories once more than one version of Fennec is out.

Comment 3

[Michael Morgan [:morgamic]]

Okay, should we put this in the input component and/or make one if there isn't one already?

Comment 4

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

We can. Though it's a Mobile bug. If they want history, it should find a place in the library. If not (which is, by the way, how the very first version of Input imagined it for Firefox Desktop as well), that's fine by me.

But sure, let's move it over, doesn't really matter too much where it lives.

I pulled these versions from the release notes in the tree.  

Stuart, is this a complete list?  It seems sparse...

1.0, 1/28/10
1.0.1, 4/13/10
1.1b1, 4/28/10
1.1rc1, 6/16/10
1.1, 7/1/10

Please fill in any missing versions.  We want beta, RCs, minor/major releases, everything.  Thanks.

Alex, that's about it. There were also:

1.0a1, 1.0a2, 1.0a3, 1.0b1, 1.0b2, 1.0b3, 1.0b4, 1.0rc1, 1.0rc2, 1.0rc3
.... but we can forego those unless Stuart has an issue with it.

Stuart? ping?

A more complete list would be awesome, but we need dates for all the development releases in comment #6.  And, someone will need to keep that list up to date as new development releases are made.

[Aakash Desai [:aakashd]]

I'm guessing this bug is fixed now, right?

Comment 10

[Alex Buchanan [:abuchanan]]

I guess we're not getting answers from Stuart so we're going with incomplete history.
