Stability
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1474028 broke signatures, especially in builds over the weekend.

Beta
firefox beta summary score: 2.51 , last Thursday 2.62
- Added a comment to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1472062. Probably not much we can do about it without looking more closely at the crash, per Comment 4.
- Poked the shutdown hangs in the top 10 beta crashes. they aren't worse than 61.
- The fix for async extension shutdown timeouts made it into b17 so i guess we will notice over the next days if it affects the crash volume in a positive way.
Note that the fix wasn't entirely effective on nightly.
Release
firefox release summary score: 2.26, last Thursday 2.28
- Never got symbols for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1476008. Now it appears a new version is out: Version: 30.0.0.154.
- Sent email to the 2 addresses in the bug to follow up and try to get symbols for the latest version.
Mobile
- Crash rate is calculated based on usage hours (the time Firefox is actively used).
- Usage hours will be significantly lower on Fennec than on desktop Firefox, so we can't compare mobile rates to desktop rates.
- Android Pie continues to roll out to Google Pixel devices
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1482452 - Crash in libart.so@0x34db51

Roundtable
- [liz] Signoffs from QA mention August 27 as a deadline to land last minute fixes. I'd prefer we give an earlier date.
- Aug 27 is monday of RC week when we go to build
- Aug 23, Thursday = First merge, beta 20 build.
- Better for feature related work to land on m-c well before that, verification & uplift by beta 20, or at latest, Friday Aug 24.
- [marcia] Reminder that SV is off this Wednesday, August 15th
