Release
QE
- Hotfix warning could use testing (for 49) Still unclear if it will affect 49. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1300523
- [Andrei] will keep an eye on How do we test this? once we're pushing to release-cdntest? Very last minute... - we'll follow up with Felipe, see if he has any tips
- (liz) SSE2 deprecation - Not sure I am clear what we expect to happen https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1284902
- [Andrei] As far as I can tell, https://bugzil.la/1284902#c25 confirmed the expected behavior - users without SSE2 support will not be updated to 49 and instead will have a learn more page available with a message stating just that.
- [desktop] [Andrei] 49.0-build2 signed off, no blocking issues.
- [desktop] [Andrei] 45.4.0esr-build1 validation in progress.

Roundtable
- [marcia] Mac testing - which versions we test - smoketests, test runs. Should we look at telemetry to decide which mix of OS's to test?
- Follow up to an email thread
- [philipp] are we now also automatically producing sha-1 signed release builds that we offer xp, vista users on the download page?
