Major Topics for This Week

Private Browsing
First set of patches have been reviewed. Likely to land this week. This will allow for initial PB testing in Nightly.
Fx17 & ARMv6
Quick napkin calculations show a slow uptake of ARMv6 devices over the first week of Fx17. As of Nov 26th, we have 0.1 % of active device installs on ARMv6. For comparison, we had ~1% when Fx17 was on Beta.
