Highlights / Notices

  • (beltzner) Firefox 4 Engineering Team has started using "soft" and "hard" to differentiate between blocking bugs
    • the hard blockers must be completed before RC
    • some (but not all) of the soft blockers may be deferred to a future release, depending on an aggregate sense of quality and product acceptance
    • new schedule estimates are being generated based on this new categorization
  • (beltzner) Current plan for tree management is to not branch for Firefox 4 / Gecko 2 until we get to a release candidate
