Stability

• Reminder that we just branched, and nightly is now 66. We also shipped 64. Please be mindful that Mission Control rates may be a bit

higher than normal (there is a message at the bottom that says "Latest release is new (4 hours in field), numbers should be viewed with skepticism"

• Also an early issue with product API details not showing correctly - it has now been resolved: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1513193

Release

• Too early to call out anything for 64 yet: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/topcrashers/?product=Firefox&version=64.0&process_type=any

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.
