Go Faster

Hello

• Now moved main development to a github repo:

• We’ll be having frequent drops to m-c and the other branches.
• Aiming for a try out of the go faster update system sometime in the next week or two.
• There will be some different flavours of the add-on that will allow for pre-release testing and being able to demo the latest changes to various users (e.g. user feedback).
• Still trying to get e10s support landed (keep hitting crashers)
