Outstanding Issues/Concerns
Stability
Current Status
- Overall rates are pretty good, no concerns other than watching for data around JS late-beta GC fixes (bug 868369/bug 851788) and Radeon.
Outstanding Issues/Concerns
- No release-specific concerns.
- Ongoing outlook.com crashes and Radeon issues require watching.
Mobile specific stability notes
- JB stagefright blocking might mean we don't see crashes in b7, but nothing else.
QA
Current Status - Desktop
- 21b7 - I think we are ready to go live once we have Stability sign-off, no crashes encountered during QA testing
- 21#1 - no crashes encountered after a full night of manual testing
- 21#2 - will start testing later today and overnight tonight
- All SocialAPI Multi-provider and FHR testing is complete, no V1 P1 bugs remaining to be fixed
Outstanding Issues/Concerns - Desktop
- Updates on betatest currently point to build2 which fail (bug 869249#13) -- does not impact Beta, only Release
- A little concerning that crash-stats seems high for 21b7
- Generally concerned about the current state of JS & Radeon crashes

Current Status - Desktop
Outstanding Issues/Concerns - Desktop
- Only concern is this build is more hanging/laggier. Not enough specifics for a real bug so we may need to wait for a release.
- The only thing that sometimes comes up is that it's particularly bad on Facebook after login (possibly game related)
- Some people say Firefox reset doesn't help
- Some issues with "opening Facebook". This could be the same as above.
- New malware(?) so more popups for lots of users.
