Aurora
- No update
Release
- [1] Explosive Report] showed a few spikes, but nothing really large in volume
- bug 776497 crash in nsGlobalWindow::SetNewDocument happened in 15 but is still happening in 16
- Some of the hangs that are in the explosive report such as https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?signature=hang%20%7C%20kernelbase.dll%400x115e8 are showing a high correlation to Flash 11.4.402.287
- KaiRo reports these are likely showing up due to a symbols issue.
- https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?signature=_moz_pixman_transform_point_3d needs a bug filed.

Support
- One community member reported that photo uploads on ebay seem to be broken on 16+ [2]. We are still trying to confirm.
Thunderbird (Tue)
- Thanks to RelEng for supporting chemspill & normal releases of Thunderbird over the last week.
- We released 16.0.1, 10.0.9esr and 17.0b1.
- We had some crash issues (bug 790229, bug 790234, bug 790232) that were Thunderbird & Mac specific in TB 15.0.1 that seem to have gone away in TB 16.0.1. Not sure what these were, but we suspect compiler issues, or an issue in gecko 15.0.1 that was adversely affecting us. Unfortunately they were not consistently reproducible and that meant we couldn't be sure we had fixed them.
- 16.0.1 is looking good so far.
