• nthomas manually ran checksums/push-to-mirrors because source builders failed
• jlund forced antivirus for the same ^ reason
• Bug 1243448 - beta release source builder failing to run configure
  • status: resolved for beta1. needs follow up
• nthomas re-ran checksums (again) because we fixed source builders after above re-triggers and so source artifacts were missing. also missing, SUM and KEY bits which he manually pushed
  • [Bug 1243873] New: KEY file missing for releases
