Nightly

Beta

• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269170 Popular flash game in japan, people are downgrading from 46 to 45.0.2 so they can play the game. Who do we refer jp-critical bugs to?

Roundtable

• Problem with Windows builds and version(s) of Visual Studio? (Milan)
  • bug #? Lawrence will help follow up, we may need to build with VS2013 for a small set of users or find other alternatives.

  • users are complaining : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1234012 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269706
  • possible workarounds: use mkaply's cck 2 tool https://mike.kaply.com/cck2/ , use ESR45 which doesn't have this change. Though following ESR will have the change. (51?)
