Hi All,
We shipped FxA train-77 to production the week before last, but I
didn't get around to sending out these notes before I went on PTO.
Belatedly, the highlights were:
* Phase one of the "connect a second device" work shipped on this
train. Users who open the verification link on a second Firefox
instance will be prompted to login directly, while those who
open it elsewhere will receive more targetted messaging about
connecting a mobile device.
* We now emit a flow event when email delibery bounces, so we
should be able to see how many users fail out of the signup
and signin funnels due to this event.
* We eliminated redundant duplicate parsing of the client's user-agent
string in the auth-server, which seems to have produced a
surprisingly large decrease in CPU usage on those machines.
* More of our emails now include IP and geolocation data.
* Several gixes to l10n, including extracting more strings for
translation, and upgrading the gettext library.
* A large number of stability and quality fixes for the functional
tests, which I hear are now running much more reliably.
* We now show some AMO-specific help text on the signin/signup screen
if the user is coming from the addons.mozilla.org account migration.
* The `preVerifyToken` functionality has been removed. This was
used during migration of accounts from the Firefox Marketplace,
to avoid requiring users to perform a second email-confirmation
loop. We did not have any active reliers that were using it, nor
plans to add any, so now it's gone.
* The "show password" button now displays correctly for passwords
that were auto-filled by the Firefox password manager.
* Both ux-stlying and code-styling of modal overlay dialogs was
cleaned up.
* The oauth-server has started enforcing expiry times on bearer tokens
generated in 2017 or later. This should halt the growth of our
currently-pretty-gigantic backlog of tokens that *should* have been
expired long ago, but couldn't be for performance reasons. We'll
continue cleaning up the backlog via a background script.
As always, you can find more details in the changelogs for each repo:
