Status Update for mus+ash - 1/23/2019

[Daniel Xie]

Hi,

This is how the team is progressing. The team is mainly focused on Ash refactoring supporting running the mash window service in the browser process . Overall the team is continuing to make great progress and addressing blocking bugs for the initial dev trial in M74. Our plan is to enable the feature by default once all of the blocking issues are resolved in the next week or so.

Ash Refactoring

We split the ash refactoring into 2 milestones: running the mash window service in the browser process and supporting mash running in separate process. Overall, we are down to 188 ash includes with tests (vs 188 last week). Excluding test includes, we are at 63 (vs 63 last week).

Mash Window Service in the Browser Process (Status: In progress)

The team is focused on addressing remaining blocking issues for the dev trial. In parallel, the testing team is running tests for verifying Mash Window Service in the Browser Process. The team is also triaging incoming bugs filed. Our target is to enable this feature by default when the blocking issues are addressed.

Here is a summary of the bugs we are tracking:

Mash Window Service outside of the Browser Process (Status: In progress)

As the team winds down refactoring Single Process Mash, the team will be focused on burning down blockers for running Mash in a separate process. It is anticipated that the initial bug count will increase we correctly break down bugs for tracking.
