- This has a significant discussion in-call
- What we need here is a number; a recommended minimum Firefox version for compatible by default.
- In the absence of a good estimate, we'll have to go conservative and say FF9, but we'd like to go back further if we can be confident about it.
- Anthony Hughes has taken the action to round up QA, input, product and engineering feedback to make a recommendation for next Tuesday's meeting.
- This has a significant discussion in-call
- Add-on hotfix testing Status
