Notes
Build 1
Preparing to start Automation
- Requested a clobber for Any master, mozilla-beta, any builder
- Hit "Ship it" for Firefox & Fennec 8.0b2
- Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
- Land automation configs
- Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, tools, mozharness with {FIREFOX,FENNEC}_8_0b2_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
- Set reserved_slaves to 10:
# cltbld@buildbot-master08 echo 10 > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
- Updated master configs, ran checkconfig, reconfiged.
- Ran release sanity:
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master source ../bin/activate PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u catlee -pfirefox,fennec -V 8.0b2 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py -c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --dryrun localhost:9001
- Started the release:

- Started autosigning according to https://intranet.mozilla.org/Build:CombinedSigning
E-mail mirrors@mozilla.org
They want to know approximately what time push to external mirrors will occur. Ideally this is a 24hr notice to them, with the estimated time.
Subject: Firefox {VERSION} coming to mirrors tomorrow Body: We're planning on pushing our Firefox {VERSION} release to mirrors sometime over the next 24 hours in time. # If this is a chemspill, please mention that in the email as it will mean pinging # for CDN to be enabled when the push to internal mirrors happens If you believe these releases or these dates will cause any problems, please notify release at mozilla.com. If you have any problems with mirror status/weights/etc, please notify mirror-submissions at mozilla.org.
This is not necessary for rapid release betas, as the files don't go to the external mirrors. The template has been updated. (NThomas 14:58, 10 October 2011 (PDT))
