This page is to keep track of the current work on supporting officially the Windows 64 bit builds of Firefox.

We are currently providing the builds out of a single machine that produces the builds a couple of times a day. The builds are being provided with updates.

This machine has to be upgraded to add more release and automation tools so we can clone more slaves out of it.

I have created the #win64 IRC channel in case you need to chat with people involved with the Windows 64 bit builds project.
