- Reserve slaves
echo "10"> master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
- Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
- Land automation configs (are you or buildduty going to reconfig? great, merge. otherwise double-land only your configs)
- Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags
- update and reconfigure the master
- start automation
