Schedule Update

Current releases dashboard: https://mozilla.github.io/delivery-dashboard

• 66.0.5 and 60.6.3 are out at 100%
  • Should we bump Fennec from 99.99% to 100% in Google Play?
  • Will discuss after the meeting

• If a patch comes up for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1535699 we may make a beta 19 tomorrow so as that we can monitor the effect on crashes before RC (but unlikely that we have the patch before RC)

• 67 release moved from May 14 to May 21, so 67RCs coming up next week along with early 68 Developer Edition

Stability

Nightly

firefox nightly summary score: 7.17, Tuesday 7.17

• Service workers crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1547524 still at the top of crash stats
• Mac/Linux Web Storage crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1541895 seems to be rising since the initial filing
• Diagnostic asserts still being added to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1540401. Very visible crash in 68 nightly
• Core | Web Painting bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1548483 seems to be fixed in recent builds

Beta

firefox beta summary score: 2.82, Tuesday 2.83

[67.0b18]

• Content crash in [@ mozilla::dom::ClientSource::SetController]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1535699 et al - 5.8% of tab crashes

• patches for gfx content crashes in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1535866 & https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1536229 have been successful

Release

firefox release summary score: 1.82, Tuesday 1.82

• Filed a new crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1550475 that seems to be more visibile in 66.0.5. Might be a dupe

Mobile

• Crash rate is calculated based on usage hours (the time Firefox is actively used).
• Usage hours will be significantly lower on Fennec than on desktop Firefox, so we can't compare mobile rates to desktop rates.

• Release

fennec release summary score: 16.27, Tuesday 16.29

• • Noticeable spike in Android Q crashes in release - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1549974

• Beta

fennec beta summary score: 49.54, Tuesday 50.27

• • JS crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1521158 is not completely fixed - still one signature showing at the top of beta and in nightly

• Nightly

fennec nightly summary score: 126.91, Tuesday 126.02

• • #10 Overall is LG phone specific - not much we can do about it - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1541912
  • Nothing else new to call out in Fennec nightly
