Schedule Update
- Mozilla-Inbound and Mozilla-Central are both Approval Required now to mitigate risk to Fennec Native 14. approval-mozilla-central should now be available for nominations. We plan to use the branch-triage list for the purposes of triaging (as opposed to in-person meetings).
- Major Update prompts (with security messaging) to FF11 from 3.6.13-28 will start tomorrow, but we've requested that updates start being staged on releasetest today for QA to start testing
- Testing of the add-on hotfix to communicate the FF13 de-support will occur no later than Thursday 4/19 with our FF12 beta audience (bug 741004)
- Beta 6 will be going to build this afternoon PT (if the backout in bug 734019 is verified to fix bug 745453)
- If given a go-to-build around 3PM PT (not urgent), can get builds kicked off, enabling us to still ship Beta 6 on Thursday?
- FF12 sign-offs tomorrow at 1PM PT in Warp Core
- Final build of FF12 and ESR10.0.4 will happen this coming Friday (4/20)
