 * Check the last 2 or 3 Build Notes if this is your first time verifying a major update generated in this new way. Carrying forward the known issues might be overkill.

+* I clobbered and re-triggered
+* I had to trigger for a third time. This time it worked
+* It seems that downloading from stage-old.mozilla.org is not 100% safe since it is a proxy.
