=About:Release Management=
The Release Management Team is tasked with ensuring keeps the release process is on track while ensuring quality releases of our products and for users. We monitor releases, track work for upcoming releases, coordinate coordinating with any and all teams responsible for areas of release quality/, security, and stability. As release managers track specific features and individual bugs, we work with developers, engineering managers, product managers, UI/stability UX teams, and QE, monitoring everything that goes into a new version of Firefox under development. We aim to get features & fixes (and sometimes backouts) landed in time for proper evaluation and the shipping of . Our goal is to ship the most stable & quality product we can ship possible for Firefox Desktop & Mobile.

Each version of Firefox is follwed by a release manager who owns it from start to release (and beyond). This way, Nightly, Aurora, Beta, ESR, and Release channels have someone dedicated to getting all the pieces put together correctly.
