Schedule Update

• 38.0.5. In this episode
  • Desktop: 38.0.5 build4 built and live
    • Two drivers (in the context of the big marketing push on this release)
      • bug 1166183: Critical webrtc issue
      • bug 1159973: JS stability
    • We are going to use the beta channel enough time to know if we have the amd crash
    • Affects the 39 beta schedule :(
  • Mobile: still no beta published
    • Blocked on a legal point with AdujstS
    • We should know more today
    • If yes
      • maybe use beta for a day or two in order to test AdjustSDK
      • and I would need a wording for the release notes
    • if no
      • No big reason to do 38.0.5
• Should we be shipping 39.0b1 today? Or not? Build 2 is ready. Users will not have partial updates available at all, as things stand. We could do a build3 which would mean 38.0.5 RC build 4 users would have partials. Or, just stick with build 2.
  • No. We will plan to ship 39.0b1 mobile Wednesday morning. 39.0b1 desktop will likely be released Thursday.
• Decision on Dev Edition version for June 2 (hal) (40.0-spring-release) DENIED!!!!
