Add-ons

Stability
Aurora
- 21.0a1 data doesn't show anything bad so we should look good for turning on updates for Aurora 21.
Beta
- Waiting for 20.0b1 data, Aurora 20 looks good other than another spike of Radeon bug 839270
Release
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830531 seems to be yet another AMD Radeon Graphics crash in the growing list of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=radeon%20kw%3Acrash - those are possibly a chipset problem.
- This time it's happening on Win8 only, but there is seems as bad as the b5 crash bug 839270 was :(
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=806786 is a lower-volume but still topcrash problem on NVidia and Intel chipsets
Mobile
- Database problems are the main issue in 19.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=791958 is #1 and a new problem in this release apparently.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829927 is another new issue, #5 atm
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752828 was already high during the 18 release and is in between those

0) question in l10n newsgroup about localized "whats new" pages for FF19
1) lots of mechanics for FF19 migrations, EOL of ESR10, b2g v1.0.1 drop, dogfooders, etc. We think everything is good, so if you see something that looks odd, please file bug in mozilla.org:RelEng.
2) Tracking bugs for future merge days. If you know of anything that is riding the trains, please make sure to link to these tracking bugs.

Support
We are seeing more of the same feedback as we saw on Tues. A few new issues. We are in the process of creating comparisons between pdf.js and changes to new tab page to gauge overall acceptance.
New Bugs: Links with javascript generate errors (843741) Tax statements from Capital One fail (843755) More confusion around download/save:
pdf-documents i Firefox 19 - How can these be "saved as" pdf on the own computer? Can not find any button or meny for that. I can't download pdf documents since updating to FF 19. I've had to use Safari or Chrome. Disappointing since FF is my default browser.
Don't know how to disable or use alternate viewer:
It takes much longer to load a given page in the viewer than it was when using Adobe Reader. Is there a way to revert to using Adobe Reader again?
Printing Issues: One of the biggest complaints we've seen is the inclusion of the URL Requests: Search, Open in.., Settings button
Seeing feedback that users can't clear recent downlods, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/951103. Not fixed by reset.
