  • [Florin] I received the following from Marco: "the webRTC/Loop team is going to start using the iteration and point fields as well for their separate iterations. The firefox-backlog+ flag will separate our bugs from theirs."
    • how does this impact us? should we take this into account, or consider it sprint work along with everything else in our sprint?

Nightly (Fx 34)(Desktop - Liz Mobile - Aaron/Kevin)

  • Bug verification well underway

Security

Automation (whimboo)

  • Puppet
    • One more proxy related bug (1059141) has to be fixed
    • Next: Working on getting the right screen resolution set for OS X and Ubuntu
  • Mozmill:
    • Patch for more descriptive disconnect messages (bug 975068) has been landed about a week ago. It will be used for further investigation
    • Finalizing necessary changes for wptserve for an upcoming mozmill 2.1 release
  • Mozmill CI
    • Landed the next two batches of locales for testing beta and release. We now have about 40 locales in the matrix
    • We have to change the way how we store Jenkins logs, given the massive amount of running jobs ( https://github.com/mozilla/mozmill-ci/issues/473 )
    • Cosmin about to start working on the blacklist implementation
  • Test creation
    • Two mochitests for password manager and dev tools have been landed
    • Two Mozmill tests for TPS are under review
  • Infrastructure
    • We requested to replace our OS X 10.7 machines with OS X 10.10 (see bug 1059264)
    • Requested installation of EDIDs for our Mac Minis, which is necessary for puppet and will fake a connected monitor (bug 1053977)

Stability

  • Beta crash rates are at almost the level that 31 had before release but the experiments crashes that will not exist on release are lower, so the overall level expected for release might be higher - and the 31 level was already not very satisfactory.
  • Aurora will need more work on OMTC-related crashes, we need to make sure there's traction on them.
  • A large spike happened yesterday in the OOM|small signature on nightly, both desktop and Android, will need investigation - but some investigation of OOM|small is already going on in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1053934 and it's unclear if that is affecting this or not, we'll need to dig into this.
