In progress. I have a lot more work to do on this page.

This page is a tracking document for handling and following topcrashes on the trunk.

Current topcrashes being tracked for beta 3

Topcrashers for beta3 are currently considered "old". We need to re-track for beta4. I'm using this "old" data as sample data to see if what format works.

What do I do?

So, someone CCed you to a topcrash bug and asked for your help. What should you do?

There are several steps that developers and QA need to go through to help fix a crash. As a developer, we're specifically asking that you comment in the bug when you've completed all the steps and specifically state which steps you completed.
