== Summary ==
Mozilla and the Firebug team were able to work together to ensure that Firefox 4 and a compatible version of Firebug (1.7) were available on the same day. Since Firebug 1.7's release, a small number of new crashing bugs and regressions have been found, some Firebug users have complained about memory usage and Firebug has been noted as [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/performance/ the add-on that has the most impact on Firefox startup performance].
Just as we worked to get Firefox 4 and Firebug 1.7 out together, the next step is to ensure that Firebug can provide a stable experience that does not slow down Firefox.
== Release Requirements ==
* Significant crashing/regression bugs in the platform fixed
* Known memory leaks plugged
* Firebug impact on startup performance reduced to less than 40% slower (from its current 75% slower score)
== Next Steps ==
* Needs ETAs from platform team
* Needs identified team members from platform team
== Related Bugs & Dependencies ==
todo: provide link to devtools status page. The follow bugs will be tracked there:
* {{bug|645160}}
* {{bug|638075}}
* {{bug|642801}}
== Team ==
* Jan (Honza) Odvarko: Firebug developer, lead on reducing startup performance impact
* Kevin Dangoor: PM
* Steve Fink: JSD whipping boy
