Agenda / questions

• tarek: decide on 404 vs 204 [mconnor, fqueze] tarek: don't matter to me but +0 on 404. no 200 with empty body plz - let find consensus quickly *or* talk about it in whislter.
  • another option would be 200 with a body containing the refresh interval.
• do we know the final hostname/URL? Or should we land the patch with a temporary one?
  • search.services.mozilla.org?
    • to be checked by sec team - we might want a specific cert
  • semi-related : can we have an option in about:config to set the endpoint (useful for testing)
    • browser.search.geoSpecificDefaults.url in the current patch

• can we omit the cohort value in the server response instead of sending "default"?
  • yes :-)
•

• tarek: whislter: I guess we could sit down 1/2 day and finish nailing this thing. mconnor needs a bike.
  • Tuesday afternoon 5pm
• 
  
• tarek: ops, are you missing something besides the HB or are we good ?
• tarek: __heartbeat__ ready? sometimes today. :)
• florian: how much do we need to record in telemetry?
  • do we need to record the time it takes to get a response from the server?
