Previous Actions

Schedule Update

• Fx50
  • Still debating whether we need an RC3 for the following bug:

Bug 1313965 - Flash Player object on cbsnews.com/48-hours/ is severely misaligned

• • The actual fix needs to come from CBS, they don't have the fix ready yet
  • CBS is #130 on alexa US top sites
  • If we backout we might break out sites that we do not know of

Add-ons

will have enough RC to run telemetry on end of day or tomorrow (from Oct 31) to compare against Beta 9 & 10 (before SDK patches) Nightly before/after showed positive impact on hangs and memory usage - no negative bugs or press or social found in nightly or beta since changes.

  • filed new bug for them: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1316022 (1.5% of all browser crashes in early rc2 data)
