** contrary to some reports on the Internet, this is the usual process for Firefox and software releases; the 3.5 release was strong, stable and solid, and feedback has been extremely positive. Near the end of the release we become extremely conservative about patches to accept; the 3.5.1 release is a quick update to fold in some patches that came up late in the 3.5 release cycle.

* We will try to do an alpha before we branch on July 31st.  Since time is short, we will make the call whether or not an alpha is even possible before we branch, on Friday, July 24th.  Even then, things are tight, and it's quite possible that we won't have time for an alpha.
