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

  • 41.0.1 probably going out today, driven by startup crashes and Flash-related browser freezes, with some ride-alongs
  • Mobile concern about bug 1207642 (x86 crash at random addresses)

Beta (Fx42) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

Aurora (Fx 43) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

  • Saw some stability issues with older processors that do not support SSE2/SSE3

Nightly (Fx 44) (Desktop - KaiRo Mobile - Ioana/Kevin)

ESR (Fx 38.3.0)

Security

Automation (whimboo)

  • Our custom runner script for firefox-ui-tests in mozmill-ci has been finished transplanting to mozharness (crash handling included). But we cannot replace it yet given that we have to still implement the s3/treeherder submission of results which are handled outside of mozharness
  • Requested replacement of osx 10.8 nodes with 10.11 (bug 1209205)
