Major Topics for This Week

Collecting data. Looking for feedback on Play Store and Input.
Usage Milestone
We broke 1 million ADIs yesterday (combining Fx14, Fx15 and Fx16).
Focus on Nightly
Most work is happening on features slated for Fx18 or greater. We seem to be moving away from our "uplift the world" curse.
