The Yahoo messenger bug bug 713014 may be due to bug 696020
QA found a possible gelocation regression when near a place with tons of access points (bug 713991)

Do we need to do the compat bump on AMO now that we have compatible by default?
- We will continue doing the compatibility bumps. The only difference is that we won't be doing positive bumps (telling devs the add-on passed and increasing the maxVersion on AMO), only negative bumps (telling devs the add-on didn't pass compatibility checks).
- The negative bump logs will also serve as a source of incompatibility data

Have we seen any compatible by default add-on issues? How would issues show up? Have we blocked any add-ons yet?
- Is QA running automated tests with the top 500 add-ons (and top 50 installed permutations?)
- QA lead looks to be Virgil Dicu (from the feature page)

Need to get a fix for bug 711900
- Worried that it is stumping some heavy hitters (bz, gavin, etc)

Beta 2 test plan
- On track to release on Friday -- no blocking issues found as of yet
- bug 713991 - Geolocation fails consistently, regression caused by bug 668194, affects Firefox 9 (mobile & desktop)
- bug 714045 - Site favicon not displayed in Panorama if entering Panorama before site has loaded completely
- bug 714173 - Getting "There was a problem submitting your report" messages when trying to submit Mac crashes
  - No one outside of the MV office has been able to reproduce this yet
bug 711275 Make sure appVersion changes with every Firefox 10 beta - will ensure that the add-ons default to compatible path will be hit on each beta update
- We had to not do this because Fx wouldn't install over previous Fx10 betas. It sees 10.0 (previous appVersion) as > 10.0b2 (new/altered app version)
- We decided to go back to normal for b2, which means the default compatible path isn't hit for b2
- Investigating bumping it to 11.0 for future betas to work around the issue
- SM folks are aware

We are going to have Blekko look for bad version sniffing (that may affect Firefox 10)
- When is this happening?
What to do with emails with questions/bugs from users to android marketplace account?
Alex and christian are taking point communicating with Amazon. Let's not have multiple threads which could confuse them.

jorge - Look at Fx10 bump failures and figure out when we are going to transplant to the compatible by default override list
ashughes - Will talk with Virgil about getting a compatible by default QA status report
clegnitto - Will talk to Asa to make sure the Blekko stuff is moving forward
clegnitto - Will add the Android market place support discussion to the Wednesday product meeting agenda
