* As we wrap up the feature freeze with beta 7, we're creating a dashboard queries to coordinate our efforts for the remainder of the release. At a high level:
** Review queues are getting clogged, lots of people with 12+ review requests with JST the winner at 44, roc at 21, ted at 22, peterv at 16, etc. Please go through your review queues and knock out all the blocker reviews ASAP.
** Next we have a ton of blockers without owners. I'll be sending around queries so it's easy for people to find them, but component leads shouldn't wait.
** Next after freeze, we have a spectacular list of crashes that we should grind through. Sheila Mooney is helping to pull together the next attack on crashes. See details [https://wiki.mozilla.org/CrashKill/Firefox4 here].
* Goals: Real list found [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/2010-Q4-Goals here]. Quick overview:
** {{ok|Finish Firefox 4 blockers.}}
** {{ok|Support Firefox Team to stand up a browser on Electrolysis.}}
