jimm

• finished up work on the new e10s release reuqirements.. requirements.
  • tracking bug: e10s-rc
  • master doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kdYHycZN1ETRcw3B3xH4fnNnAs4dzRh3loUX9x8UhZQ/edit
  • basically we're going to let performance and stability metrics drive the "rollout from aurora" decision. e10s-rc tracks metrics/HUD/misc. bugs needed to get the metrics we'll use in making a final decision. Perf team will be working on fixing these bugs over the next few months.
  • existing metrics that regress and block will land in e10s-perf, which we'll be triaging and starting work on in a few weeks.
• bug 1137944 (m7, plugin painting) - wip, still trying to figure out how to do with without introducing deadlock problems.
• bug 1198459 (m8, disable e10s with a11y) - started looking at this this morning. I think we can fix Windows pretty easily, still need to look at mac and linux.
