You may have read the news that Ehsan will be end of lifing his github gecko mirror. Having a current mozilla-central mirror on git has contributed to my mental health, and has generally allowed me to be a better human being and not drown in self ... [More] pity and misery. So thank you Ehsan. Luckily, the RelEng team has picked up the baton, and have a git mirror of their own running. So go clone it. Unfortunately the commits do not share the same SHA1 as Ehsan’s repo. So you can’t just switch the remote URI. Also, after you clone, you will need to migrate your branches over. There might be ways to do this in a bulk-ish way, but I only have one branch that I really care about, and I will keep the old clone around for a while if I need to pick something up from an obscure branch. So I did this off the top of my head: [eitan@mozbox Mozilla]$ cd mozilla-central-old/ [eitan@mozbox mozilla-central-old]$ git checkout a11y [eitan@mozbox mozilla-central-old]$ git format-patch master..a11 0001-Bug-942991-Updated-virtual-cursor-navigation-sounds.patch 0002-Bug-942994-Introduce-clicked-sound.patch 0003-supress-error-when-trying-to-activate-invalid-access.patch 0004-hide-visual-cursor-when-vc-is-null.patch 0005-some-cursor-control-tweaks.patch 0006-start-of-new-dialog-focus.patch 0007-Only-blur-focus-if-new-pivot-position-is-not-focused.patch [eitan@mozbox mozilla-central-old]$ cd ../gecko-dev [eitan@mozbox gecko-dev]$ git checkout -b a11y [eitan@mozbox gecko-dev]$ git am ../mozilla-central-old/000*.patch Applying: Bug 942991 - Updated virtual cursor navigation sounds.

For a little while now, there has been an apps “Show and Tell” session hosted by Mozilla where app developers could showcase cool things they are working on. Last Friday, I got the opportunity to show off our Screen Reader emulator, and how to use it to test web apps. If you could bear the bad audio, you could watch the session here.
