Schedule Update
- FF23.0b8 built & with QA
- bug 891808 had to be pulled because of Dromaeo crashes - might not respin if no serious user impact expected from that since we'll build anew on Thurs
- Respin mobile beta8 with bug 886576?
Add-ons
- Bug 896160 - Request to block Java 7 U25. Waiting on sec assesment.
Stability
Aurora
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=886295 (nsPrintEngine::PrePrintPage, PDF printing) is #20 on Aurora - for a PDF- and printing-related crash, that seems high.
- Patch already landed on Aurora branch
Beta
- RelevantKnowledge bug 860641 will stay high on beta for quite some time unless we find a way to get new blocklists to apply for existing profiles.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=877164 (nsNodeUtils::LastRelease) looks high but that's mostly dupes. Not too sure what to do with it. bsmedberg thinks it could be a variant of the Radeon issue, but a lot of those are startup and don't contain graphics card info.
- Kairo please comment in bug
Release
- No concerns atm.
Mobile
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=881018 (mozilla::layers::floor_div) is still #1 on Aurora, has a new try at a patch up.
- Kairo can you please help with the needsinfo on this, while the speculative patches keep landing - Done.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=871290 (js::ion::Assembler::TraceJumpRelocations) continues to be #2 on beta.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760394 (Cursor window allocation of <n>*2048 kb failed) is #3 on Beta and #4 on Release.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=889433 (libcutils/libstagefright, Sony Xperia Z) now has a block landed on trunk, aurora and beta.
- bug 845867 (libGLES_hgl on ARMv6) and bug 863313 (libGLES_rhea/libEGL_VIVANTE) continue to be a large concern and top-3 in aggregated numbers in release.
- more info from Metrics (Annie) on Thursday from Google Play stats to see if we're seeing a significant hit here on losing users, which devices
QA
- [FYI] QA automation support in terms of Linux versions. We currently have VMs in Mozmill-CI for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and 12.10; the automation team is in the process of upgrading the 12.10 VMs to 13.04. IS it necessary to run testing on 12.04(LTS)/12.10/13.04 ?
- We tried filing Bug 895221 - Get Firefox ADI across Linux version, but could not get the needed data and decided to run automation on 12.04 LTS and 13.04.
- Current plan of record is to support Ubuntu latest (LTS & Release) via automation, all other "supported" versions through dogfooding, bug triage, and community (as we do with other distros) -- at least until we have the infrastructure to scale (and maintain) more VMs

Marketing/Communications
Support
Beta currently has 4.1 stars MCB: 61.3% - I didn't notice it at all. 28.5% - I've noticed the icon but it hasn't affected my everyday web browsing. 10.2% - I've had some problems with websites that are possibly caused by this change. Addons: Spoke to AMO team during workweek. Consensus is that all AMO addons should be fine. Asked about any non-AMO addons.
