- A smartphone sunset update was made at last Thursday’s All Hands. Feb. 25th CD All Hands
- Breakdown of the code transition development work is being worked on this week with the engineers. Meta bugs are being filed so that bugs can be filed under them and the work easily tracked.
- Transition work is expected to take 3-5 months to complete. Breakage is expected but as much breakage as possible will be fixed by the end of the transition period.
- Determining build and test requirements.
- A plan will be developed by a team assembled of volunteers and staff to transition the code. Kick-off meeting is being held by participation team so that transition planning can begin for the volunteer community to take over ownership of the code once the transition has been completed.

Link to complete Ramp-Down plan
(also included in mana)
- Evaluations of all agreements have been completed (Most agreements to be terminated by Q1 2018, if not sooner).
- OWDCRB: CRB informed of our CD pivot. OWDCRB needs to take a decision about future of the forum.
- Support for emergency fixes: If a very serious security vulnerability or device issue were detected in any of the commercial builds Mozilla would fix it.
- PNS: all hosted by Mozilla currently. Targeting to assure support at least until Q1 2018.
- AGPS support: in case of SPRD devices provided by third-party (Here maps). Content BD team worked to secure the continuation of the service to the active devices for three years.
- SUMO: No plans for discontinuation. Maintenance of content is planned and minimum support will be provided to end users.
- Marketplace, FxOS users support: FxOS 1.x users will be supported until June 2017 (meaning fixing critical bugs only affecting to 1.x is not assured). FxOS 2.0 users will be supported until Q1 2018 (when potential decommission will be considered).
- Marketplace, Operator Shelves: it will be supported until Q1 2018
- Marketplace, App submission: EOL June 2017 (for Tarako and in China, Q1 2016)
- Marketplace, Payments: it will be switched off in Q1 2016 (very little user impact).
- Marketplace, Content: maintaining critical most popular apps alive in the marketplace is critical to provide a fair service to current FxOS users. BD engaging with major content partners to try to assure some minimum support to existing key apps.
- Public Facing Mozilla sites: updates/archives or even decommissions of public Mozilla sites pertaining to FxOS: Wikis (TBD), MDN (plan here), disable Mobile Partner site, reorg of some Mozilla.org pages (bug 1239863).
