Major Topics for This Week

UI Hackathon
Looks like we fixed 19 ui-hackathon bugs during the sprint. Lucas has a wrap-up post that goes into more detail. The general consensus seems to be that the Hackathon was a success, and we are looking forward to doing more of them.
L10n repack changes
We stopped packaging a whole ton of files as part of the multi-locale builds. If you see any regressions, please file a bug and CC :Pike.

We're only using those toolkit l10n files now that are explicitly referenced. Please be mindful when trying to use more files from there, you'd need to add them to the magic in http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/locales/jar.mn#32
