Marketing/Communications

  • Getting good coverage on the latest GA version of Firefox - woo hoo! Memory messaging successful.

  • Mobile
    • Launch was very successful, surge in downloads and ADIs
    • Tablet support was widely featured in press
    • New updates to google play store: video and privacy fields

Support

Desktop:

  • Form field placeholders no longer cleared on click but on first typed character [1] Deliberate or not?
  • Norton on Mac seems to not be updated to support Firefox 15 yet (Norton on Windows is).
  • Norton Confidential is telling users to use Firefox 1.5 or later, but doesn't have support for 15 yet (and it seems to be causing crashes). This is causing a lot of confusion for users. this is a discontinued product that has been replaced by Norton Identity Safe. We need to find out if there is an upgrade path for users
  • Loss of Bookmarks on bookmark toolbar seems to be caused by the boox add-on. There's no update on their end so it's possibly something we broke (and may affect other extensions)

Minor issues:

  • We moved the UI for tabs on top bug 755646
  • We changed some CSS border-image behaviors

Mobile:

  • Smaller Issue with Text Input which is affecting Mobile as well. Keeping an eye on this in Feedback (Google Play, Input) to see how widespread it is. Was brought up in mobile meeting. [2]

Roundtable

  • Comments/concerns on the Release Schedule during holidays.Please fill in the contacts needed section on the spreadsheet
  • Questions around changes to Tabs on Top
