Channel Status

Release (Fx 38)(Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Aaron/Ioana)

• Mobile: https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Fennec/38
• slowness reported for some people on Windows, bug 1165732, would be good to get into 38.0.5
• otherwise, release looks decent

Beta (Fx38.0.5) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

• largest risk remains the Pocket work
  • [Andrei] Several bugs still being tracked for fixing - we'll have a definitive assessment on the feature's status once those fixes land on RC1 and get looked at.

Aurora (Fx 40) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

• Plugin crashes and hangs back to normal \o/
• Some other stability issues still need work of uplifts

Nightly (Fx 41) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

• pretty thin on stability coverage

ESR (Fx 31.7.0)

ESR (Fx 38.0)

Security

Automation (whimboo)

• General

• Mozmill / Marionette (whimboo)
  • Mozmill framework and test failures are no longer getting fixed! It's plainly dead now!
  • Mozmill-CI staging got switched to Firefox UI Tests for Nightly builds - so far it looks pretty good. Other branches will follow soon.

• Marionette
