Im sure BOA customers are glad to see their annoyance is finally going to get fixed.http://robert.accettura.com/blog/2008/07/10/bank-of-america-to-support-firefox/ David Miller: Bugzilla at OSCON 2008- July 11, 2008 Bugzilla will again be participating at the Mozilla booth at OSCON.

If theres any other Bugzilla folks going to OSCON, please drop in and help us. :) Last year Bugzilla got a pretty good reception (we generated more non-Mozilla-employee traffic at the Mozilla booth than Firefox did!)

We received a lot of useful feedback on the design and text and weve included many of those suggestions in the 1.0 version (PDF warning). This is intended to be a living document that will change as the community grows, so please feel free to send more suggestions and well make new versions as needed. If theres interest in also having this brochure in other languages, Ill be happy to work with the localization community to make..http://davidwboswell.wordpress.com/2008/07/10/mozilla-brochure-10/ Calendar: Philipp's Developer Notes: Alarms and Invitations- July 10, 2008 String freeze is coming up so I've decided to give an overview of what's on my radar and what has been. Aside from calendar work my semester is about to end but that unfortunately doesn't mean I have more time. I have put a fair amount of work into bug 353492 in hopes of supporting multiple alarms and different alarm types for the provider for Google Calendar. Due to the large amount of code and the high possibility for regressions I don't think this will make it into the next release. There...http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/calendar/2008/07/philipps_developer_notes_alarm.html Brian King: Mozdev OSCON 2008- July 10, 2008 Well, if the Songbird folks can do it, so can we!

In addition, over the last two weeks, Ive set up a handful of meetings with localizers from several Indic languages who have been poking us to find out what they need to do to start buidling, testing, and eventually shipping a localized version of Firefox 3. Mic has also been reaching out to localizer groups to set up team-to-team meetings and overall, I think.http://blog.mozilla.com/seth/2008/07/10/compare-locales/ John Resig: Implementing a Selectors API Test Suite- July 10, 2008 This week I've been busy working on implementing a test suite for the Selectors API specification. I picked up a new microphone recently so I decided to do a quick walkthrough of the work that I've been doing and how I've been going about it. You can view the the video below: Implementing a Selectors API Test Suite You can run the test suite for yourself here (it's still very much in flux - there are various parts that may still be wrong): http:ejohn.orgappsselectortest Here's a quick break..http://ejohn.org/blog/implementing-a-selectors-api-test-suite/ The Mozilla Blog: Mozillas Guinness World Record Certificate- July 10, 2008 Yesterday Mozilla received the official Guinness World Record certificate for the largest number of software downloads in 24 hours.
