Double-tap to reflow
- Patch approved to remove for GA and expected to only be present in Beta, Aurora and Nightly [requires patch for Nightly] but hasn't yet been removed
FHR added text - should see it soon
Product announcements for Fx 24 beta
- We have professional copy and can publish it out, early next week is estimated timing
API parity from FxOS has been requested from Vishy
- KR to request a matrix for comparison & timing
- Request is for alarm and webactivities - but alarm has same issues as push
- NB: webactivities was designed for B2G in mind and a spec doesn't yet exist for Fx for Android
- Need better cross-platform coordination (gaps, holes, what's blocking development, how APIs need to change) - can we get Vishy to make it clearer

builds: done I believe? Anything left to do here?
tests: hardware PO for androidx86 approved Friday bug 892825. No ETA on delivery. No ETA on IT-rack-power-setup. Expect running in production ~3weeks after RelEng can ping the machines.

Mixed content - from Fx 24 - 25
- Uplifted to Fx 25
Add-on control of added homescreen page
Add-on control of tiles on default homescreen
- Margaret will take a look from a dev point of view
- Ian needs to provide some visual cues
- Bundled add-ons vs non-bundled add-ons: different control or vetting process?
- Better descriptions in AMO detailing out exactly what happens to the UX
- We also have a black list
  - Project Squeaky (desktop focused currently) - Tyler can provide more info
New settings menu: search providers timing?
- Didn't make it to Fx 25, so need to back out what did land (so will revert to 24) and will work on getting the search component landed in Fx 26
- The rest is in there, including the developer tools section
- Menu has been restructured and will have dev tools in it for 25, and only the search component will be backed out and moved to 26
Adding search providers
- Communicate via post to l10n newsgroup with included locales, bugs filed
- Timing could be done in a cycle (into aurora) - will be dependent on locales (possibly 25, more realistically 26)
