Given ~140 Aurora-blocking bugs and our fix rate, e10s will probably ride to Aurora 40 (and hold there for more testing).

Nightly 42 (merge date June 29) will be the last Firefox release of 2015.
- Will e10s make Firefox 42? Our current burndown charts for M8 (and M8 and non-blocking '+' bugs) say yes, we will likely get more bug reports from Aurora and Beta testers.

Need to spend more time on Q1 FlashKill initiative.

M4 - bug 1068349 - IPC message handlers that return false cause child process to crash without a crash report
- Fixed and landed.
- Hard to tell if we've seen any uptick in crash reports because of the holiday dip.
M4 - bug 1108761 - Add class to let menulist > menupopup stylings apply to other popups
- Went back and forth with Dao a bit on my approach, have put up an alternative and have gotten feedback - working on final changes.
bug 1117936 - After trying to print preview about:newtab, print preview fails on other pages.
- This is a regression caused by my printing work that is affecting non-e10s users on Nightly and Aurora (and will soon uplift to beta). I've got a fix in the works which Mossop has r+'d.
M5 - bug 1047603 - [e10s] Non-remote tabs in e10s windows do not handle target="_blank" or window.open links properly.
- Finally coming back around to this. I've got a new solution for this that works off of stuff Mossop did in bug 999239.
M4 - bug 1117867 - Disable e10s on 01/06
- Landed. Gavin asks if this is really necessary to do each 6 weeks?
  - Redirect to lmandel.

bugs now filed for all the addon errors reported by telmetry
assisting various addon authors
bug 1071562 - [e10s] Support non-text content types for content process clipboard
- can convince child process that the cmd_copyImage is valid, But its a hack because vv
- underlying problem to clipboard copying issues: in single process firefox the rooted node we need to do the operations on is managed by the (context menu)PopupManager. The content process's one is empty
  - How to do this correctly is an open question. Ideas welcome!
  - text got to cheat because that pulls from the selection manager, which is in the content process.

Started looking into showModalDialog (though might depend on mconley's target=_blank stuff)
Got reviews for bug 1055508 (findbar autofill from selection/find clipboard) but a couple of test failures
Next: Review billm's hang patch.

bug 1097998 - warn when using CPOWs when content process isn't in a safe state - landed
bug 1071880 - Notify user of addons that are slowing their browser down significantly - needs UX
bug 1096718 - display time measured spent in each compartment - needs review

Found a bug in the <browser remote="true"> destructor not being called in some cases while fixing intermittent orange bug 1094312
