2017-01-31 edit

Mark edit

  • 3D extension's thumbnailer passed security review today, scheduling extension review now - check first
  • Could use some product thoughts on the current state of the extension, I think it's pretty good right now and we could launch to see what people think (on beta, or whatever)

Matthias edit

    • mostly done, wrapping up tomorrow
