- Content rate for nightly seems high
- Possible theories are async drawing support from Adobe landed or e10s multi being enabled
- Two crashes that have few installs but a fair amount of crashes: http://bit.ly/2kQkezB and http://bit.ly/2mbko4K

- Mid-Aurora feature sign offs completed - overview: https://goo.gl/njtMif.
- AT RISK: Large-Allocation Header (1331083) - no testing done yet, we don't know exactly how to test it. I've reached out to Michael Layzell on this matter.
- AT RISK: TURN/TLS support (1056934) - no testing done yet, as we're currently blocked by https://bugzil.la/1336507 per Byron Campen.
- AT RISK: Compositor Process for Windows (1307578) - red, mainly because of https://bugzil.la/1339852,1339839.
- Windows Stub Installer (797208) - yellow, mainly because of https://bugzil.la/1339870. Is this still scheduled to ride 53? No. Experiment in 54 (32-bit vs. 64-bit), Plan to ship in 55
- Compact Themes (1314091) - yellow, mainly because of https://bugzil.la/1208616,1340206,1340620.

Beta
[Andrei]
- 52.0b8-build1 signed off (green) - test plan: https://goo.gl/h7Kvix | report: https://goo.gl/eVFUhX.
- Pre-Release feature sign offs are in progress and will be completed by Mon, Feb 27 - overview: https://goo.gl/9Xj0GA.
- AT RISK: Introduce word (and sentence?) tracking in Narrate (1290173) - this feature was only found a few days ago.
- We won't sign off this feature for pre-Release, as we didn't have enough time to test it properly, but we've done some basic testing on it and our tests passed - report: https://goo.gl/iYwGS7.
- We also have a few concerns regarding CSS Grid Inspector (1181227) - https://goo.gl/b6Mhu9. We've already reached out to engineering on this matter.
- AT RISK: Since there are still 26 opened issues related to RDM, our recommendation is against shipping this feature to release - bug list: https://mzl.la/2lJyh9l.
- AT RISK: Introduce word (and sentence?) tracking in Narrate (1290173) - this feature was only found a few days ago.
