All parties within this cross-functional project are fully engaged

Different sources of information have been used to capture the hardware specifications for our list of ARMv6 phones
- Will use PDADB as the single source of truth going forward
Currently, phones that should be able to download and install are those that meet the minimum system requirements and OpenGL2 compatible
Looking at the list of the most popular ARMv6 phones from Irina, some of the specifications require correcting (there are discrepancies)
Want to ensure we have test results from these top phones
AI Mark to post a blog to the XDA forum
AI Karen to look at providing a sample test case to elicit specific feedback
Will pursue organic testing via reaching out to the community
Relative comparison to stock browser and not to Fennec on ARMv7
AI Karen to look at scrubbing up the compiled feedback spreadsheet
AI Erin to obtain a quote for third-party testing - Karen to then engage Paxton
General consensus that we don't have enough testing for the desired comfort level releasing this feature on GA
- Alex is the most optimistic out of the group, believing our GA audience is similar to that of our Beta audience
- Karen is more conservative in her approach due to the nature of ARMv6 users and their less forgiving nature of a buggy / sub-par experience
Go / No-Go decision on including ARMv6 into Fx 16 GA to be made at the next meeting (Oct 2)

Other topics have not been covered
These topics will either be covered via email throughout the week or deferred to the next meeting
