;ARMv6 Decision: ARMv6 is a ''Go'' for Fx17. We decided to ship Fx17 using the same blocklist setup as we use for Fx17 Beta. ARMv6 minimum specs are 512MB RAM and 800MHz CPU. We also have a progression planned for future releases: Fx18 min CPU drops to 600MHz; Fx19 min RAM drops to 384MB; Fx20 adds support for smaller screens.
;Project 256 Status: Lots of patches landing related to memory usage, including some initially used for FirefoxOS. Kats [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792131#c1 reports] that Firefox will now start and load CNN on a Motorola Milestone (256 MB). The experience is not great, but we can look into more profiling and memory reductions.

;Little Things: Some neat stuff landing in Fx19: Allow last tab to be closed ({{bug|786982}}), Proxy support ({{bug|749352}}), Swipe between tabs on Awesomescreen ({{bug|759041}}) and Multi-window support on Samsung Notes and SIII ({{bug|810415}})
