Automation (whimboo)

  • All automation was busted due to S3 migration - had to release a new mozdownload rele
  • Postbuild feature has been landed ( https://github.com/mozilla/mozmill-ci/issues/661 ) - it allows us to have a clean-up (sending final report to treeherder, etc.) even for busted builds
    • Currently we cannot submit results to treeherder for releases becuase pulse messages do not contain a revision - Releng has to fix it - for now we need a workaround
