+====Stuff I don't have time for update:====
+Help wanted for {{Bug|951865}}.  Build system patch has f+, pretty basic review comments.  If somebody could push it over the line, that would help GeckoView development.
+If somebody cares about alternate build systems/better Android resource management/integration with IntelliJ, I pushed some rough hacks at building with Gradle (must be 1.9!) to https://github.com/ncalexan/gecko-dev/commits/nalexander/gradle
+You need to build and package, and then remove $OBJDIR/mobile/android/base/generated/org/mozilla/gecko/{R,Manifest}.java to prevent build errors.  Easy to add this exclusion to the geckoview/build.gradle file.
+There are hard-coded paths, all sorts of nastiness.  It was just proof-of-concept, and indeed, I was able to build a working Fennec APK using gradle.
+====Real update:====
+Full steam ahead on Firefox Accounts for Android.  I landed {{Bug|955808}} and {{Bug|956816}}.  Prereqs for Firefox Account + Sync login state machine.  rnewman did a heroic first review of said state machine and preliminary UX on Monday night before his PTO.  rnewman landed {{Bug|956442}} and {{Bug|956935}} for Sync migration.  Goal is to push a try build with preliminary UX to design team and QA this Friday.
