Release Clippings for Thunderbird 7.0 beta 1 #171

Open aecreations opened 1 month ago

aecreations commented 1 month ago

To do list for Clippings for Thunderbird 7.0b1:

  1. Update Thunderbird to latest beta release. Then check if the extension permission prompt will appear when requesting clipboard access (clipboardRead) from Clippings Manager - this is broken in recent beta releases of Thunderbird but is functioning in Thunderbird 115 (part of issue #157).
  2. Consistent nomenclature for numeric placeholders (issue #156)
  3. Improve Sync Clippings error message when unable to obtain sync folder location (issue #151)
  4. Get rid of example path to sync folder in the Sync Clippings settings dialog (part of issue #166)
  5. Update the What's New page.
  6. Test upgrade from version 6.3
  7. Release Sync Clippings Helper 2.0 beta 1.

Write a blog post announcing that Clippings for Thunderbird 7 is coming. List the top three new features/improvements that are coming, and inform users that they can no longer migrate their clippings from Clippings for Thunderbird 5.7 or older.

issue #172

This regression issue must be fixed before releasing 7.0b1.

aecreations commented 1 month ago

Issue #175 needs to be fixed for 7.0b1, as testers will most likely be running into it.

More scope creep. Issue #176 needs to be implemented since it is Linux-specific, and it needs to be tested on that platform ASAP.

aecreations commented 1 week ago

Upgrade test from version 6.3 should be performed once 7.0 beta 1 is released.

Completed upgrade test. The "compose" extension permission must be approved for the upgrade to proceed:
