   OEM Builds
   [nhirata] US_20130930_QC226 is the latest TCL build
   [nhirata] 10d is the latest Leo build

   need to cross-train IT

   [geo] Platform
   [geo] ton of movement around CRB platform requirements/test criteria. Compatibility Test Suite likely to undergo expansion and changes in near term.
   [mwargers] Mochitest work:
   poc patch working for bug 871323 (Fix and enable offline cache  mochitests for B2G), working on cleaning it up for something   submittable.
   bug 901343 (tests that use createSystemXHR are failing on b2g mochitest) checked in

   [geo] Some concerns raised by A-Team about stopping nightly builds for branches (b2g18) on which we still need automation. RelMan has now clarified which branches will still have new branches/builds cut from them, and we'll likely be reenabling the daily builds (and thus TBPL automation) on those branches.

Services (Edwin)

   Identity
   train-2013.09.25 being worked on
   shipped a new yahoo bridge to fix a regression due to a prior, overrestrictive security fix that prevent some yahoo users from being authenticated.


   Services
   Working with various VIPs to get a clear understanding of the Dev and Release schedule for FxA (Firefox Accounts) especially as it aligns with FFos 1.3.
   FirstTimeUnboxing - dev hack week in Madrid
   FxA work is moving forward within 3 Dev teams: desktop client, android client, FFos (for SITB and Marketplace)
   Sync work is (temporarily) (yet not officially) on hold while Dev teams focus on the auth work above.
   Load testing work is moving along for the 3 stacks that currently define Firefox Accounts.
   Heka v0.4 will go public very soon (looking for release date at the moment)

Web (Stephen)


   B2G/Gaia testing: 
    Lots of good progress this week!
   passing master runs on: Inari, Unagi, and more importantly Hamachi!
   8CdwprZ.png
   Hamachi is proving to be quite reliable particularly on the RIL,  a positive step for on-device testing  (thanks Stephen and Raymond)
   Sending daily reports on the nightly build to qa-b2g before 9am PST is working well, although no massive regressions just yet to challenge us fortunately/unfortunately (cross out where appropriate). It feels good to have this added communication between the teams. 
   Jsmith has been helping us get good traction on bugs we find in automation jsmith++
   New test drive, expecting to add about 10 new test cases in the next fortnight, a split between community written and staff written (staff where device is needed)
   Bouncer 
    Updated tests to reflect changes to CDN list
   Firefox Marketplace 
    Weekly release [1] went live on 10/15


   Mozilla.com 
    shipped Firefox OS CTA for Germany
