    • once it lands dates for b3 and b4.
  • Beta 3 stated as the release for all work with serious downstream work impact (ui, backend, l10n, etc). Anything that isn't like that should be pushed out into Beta 4.
  • Blocking bugs are now allowed to be owned by nobody@mozilla.org.
    • Changing this policy helps make the list better reflect reality w.r.t. which bugs are actually getting attention and which ones aren't.


Folder pane refactoring - good progress obver last few weeks - a try server build to be posted today. (bug + mdat) - people should give it a try and provide feedback as too regression - please refer to the meta bug - The patch could land if nothing major show up.

Search patch - needs user experience work. A few days work before that. Reasonable shape for beta3.
