Subject: Pre-release builds of FF24.4.0esr available for smoke testing
As we approach our next targeted ESR release date of March 18th, when we'll be shipping 24.4.0esr, we'd like your help in smoke testing the latest pre-release builds. We're not asking for a full qualification of the builds prior to release, but rather minor exploratory testing of internal websites and applications that our QA team wouldn't otherwise have access to.
Please file bugs for any critical regressions you find and make sure to set the need-info? flag on release-mgmt at mozilla.com <mailto:release-mgmt at mozilla.com> so that we have visibility into the issue. Alternatively, you can directly email release-mgmt at mozilla.com <mailto:release-mgmt at mozilla.com> or this list.
Thank you for your continued support in ensuring high quality releases of the ESRs.
