RelEng
- FYI -- Bug 1284484 - We'll be doing another round of SHA1 signing (at least trying to) before the SHA1 signing key expires to refresh our release versions of Firefox to a newer version for XP. This should help give the initial-install experience a newer working version. And a newer watershed for windows users from website when we can't detect OS version or Service Pack version.
