        • Marcia will be shooting a QA Services video at the Summit. Please see her if you are interested in helping with this effort.
      • Mozilla Summit
        • http://summit.mozilla.org/ is up if you want to follow all the action
        • We now have the list of QA individuals who have RSVP'd yes
        • Deadline for Breakout Sessions, Science Fair, and Lightning Talks is June 15. See dria's email for more information.
        • Marcia working on putting together a QA mixer that will occur sometime early in the week.
      • Conferences/Meetups
        • Tomcat at Linuxtag. We have a booth there.
        • Tony is working on a meetup Topic for July. Need to get it announced soon.
        • Tomcat and Marcia to attend the Community Leadership Summit at OSCON. Clint Talbert will also attend.
        • Marcia will likely present at BlogHer conference in August. Mozilla will have a booth there as well.
      • Accessibility (Marco)
        • Blocker bug 566103 which fixes about 5 or 6 other long-standing issues, too, has landed for Wednesday's nightly, just in time for alpha 5.
        • Also, bug 570532 has landed for this nightly build, giving some of the Firefox 4 testcases an a11y perf boost. Hopefully testing on Shaver's Tablet PC will confirm this, too.
        • We have one more perf bug, bug 541618 currently in review process which should also make a lot of things faster.
        • Firefox 3.6.4 is in good shape a11y-wise. There were no specific fixes, but OOPP works fine as it does in the Firefox 4 nightlies, too. No blocking issues from my end during the whole period.
