Stability

Aurora

• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=800347 (mozilla::ipc::RPCChannel::OnMaybeDequeueOne) continues to be a concern.

Beta

• The fix for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=881634 may have not fixed the OOM situation but only shifted us to crash elsewhere (e.g. with empty signature) instead.
• A few JS signatures are rising with b7, mostly startup crashes, need to see what's up there.

Roundtable

• We're committed to using the second digit for upcoming ESR updates, so we likely want to throw out a 24.1 beta update in preparation ?
  • Would we want this on Beta {Last-1} to test updating forward? Is it worth testing in Beta at all (possibility of population loss)?
  • let's just do that for ESR 24.1 and not use a planned dot release till FF26
• Calling out major change since ESR 17
  • PDF.js...
• Download page - full installers?
• ESR 24 tracking/status flags (24.1+, 24.2+, 24.3+) +1
