Major Topics for This Week

Blocker Uplift

You need aurora approval for any blockers that need to land on Aurora. With the beta “go to” build coming up we need approved patches landed ASAP.

Beta Status

We are evaluating the build quality everyday. We are expecting to “go to” build for Beta today or tomorrow.

Locale Testing

We are testing different scenarios for shipping Firefox in multiple languages

Stand ups
