chrisccoulson to talk with Standard8 about reducing the build size & sharing libxul
chrisccoulson, seb128, and allison to talk about creating Ubuntu One address book on fresh install

Between removing Python 2.6 and splitting Chinese language support into its own CD, we've found space for Thunderbird. Will add it to the CD for Alpha2. Continued work will be done on shrinking Thunderbird where possible.
andreasn has filled out bug list for theming, for John to review: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666227
m_conley has created a screencast demonstrating EDS read capability: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2921989/EDS%20Contact%20Integration%20Read-only%20Demo.m4v
chrisccoulson getting messaging menu patches into oneiric today. Will be developing an EDS provider for Lightning
Allison and Jason tested m_conley's EDS integration. Thumbs up.
Jason will review Alpha2 progress tomorrow (looking good so far).

CD space: Currently 15MB over, to be reclaimed with skipping .pyc files on the CD, and dynamic linking for LLVM. Ubuntu devs reviewing CD space in F2F meeting next week. Mozilla looking into a contractor to whittle down the install size.
andreasn has started a meta bug for the theming changes:
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665873
m_conley has mailing lists, auto-complete and photos working, rounding out read-only contacts integration. Write is next.
chrisccoulson has messaging menu nearly up to spec. Has run into bugs in indicator stack (affecting all apps).
Usability testing started yesterday, should have details to report soon.
chrisccoulson having a separate meeting on Lightning later this week.

CD space continues to be a concern
Don't know the cause of the 12MB->20MB increase in TB packaging size
Andreas blogged about new look http://www.andreasn.se/blog/?p=172
All EDS fields but photos appearing in TB now, will land in July 5th TB release
Have initial plan for lightning integration, not sure on timeline yet
Messaging menu integration currently stalled on https://bugs.launchpad.net/globalmenu-extension/+bug/797680
Usability testing coming up. Interesting features: attachments and addons handled differently since last test, contrast setting up account on Evo * TB
