Although most of our collaboration takes place on Github, IRC (#emberjs on freenode.net), and our Discourse site the Ember.js Core Team meets privately every Friday at 2pm EST/11am PST through Google Hangout for a weekly discussion of all things Ember.

If you have a topic you'd like to see covered, contact your favorite core team member and let them know!

Topics

Go/No-Go Feature Listing

• query-params-new #4008 Still a no-go, while @machty and @wycats hash out the specifics

PR's/Issues To Review

• canSetInnerHTML: IE cannot set innerHTML on several tags

  IE doesn't support .innerHTML = on COL, COLGROUP, FRAMESET, HTML, STYLE, TABLE, TBODY, TFOOT, THEAD, TITLE, or TR.

  Resolution: definitely a bug, but this will be fixed with HTMLbars so we'd rather wait for that to land instead of fixing now

• Overwrite observers and listeners in Ember.CoreObject.create().

  Modifies mixin inclusion code in makeCtor to remove any observers/listeners setup on the property or key prior to adding the property.

  My concern is the modification in this particular code path.

  Resolution: this used to be how create worked, but we moved away with this for performance reasons. .extend is intended for design-time use, not runtime: use .extend().create() or .createWithMixins()

• Use injected test helpers instead of local functions.

  Since we are injecting the application with our helpers (into the App.testHelpers hash), we should be using that helper and not calling the function in local scope.

  As the tests show, this allows a user to override the internal helpers with a tailored version for their scenarios.

  Resolution: make it possible but still private API. Assert on attempting to override built-in helpers.
