Add-ons
Stability
Nightly
- Looking good. Nothing explosive.
- New crash signature in last few days (not necessarily e10s) bug 1055456
Aurora
- Crash rates improving somewhat after OMTC fixes, will need the weekend to see if that's enough.
Beta
- Crash rate continues to improve but is still worse than what we want.
- KaiRo's assumption is that with the following signatures gone, we would win slightly over 8% and still probably be on the upper bound to the 1.2 rate he'd like to see:
- bug 1012924 (Experiments shutdown), ~4% - not shipping to release
- bug 1053999 (JS_TransplantObject, startup), ~3% - landed on central, uplift needed
- bug 1008107 (JS::Heap::set, startup), ~1.3% - no patch yet
- (lmandel) Not really any progress to speak of. We can push on this but a fix will need to come in RC as I do not think that we're going to get one together today for beta9.
Release
- No concerns, crash rates improve somewhat, interestingly.
Mobile
- Nothing new, beta rates are actually a bit better than expected.
Performance (Thu)
Aurora
- landed bug 1053517 (no perf concerns here)

User Advocacy
Roundtable
- cachev2 still causing problems in beta, chance that it will get disabled today (waiting on try run and need to speak with jduell)
