* '''Schedule Notes:'''
** [Monday 2/19] A new blocker was discovered recently what will require a respin for Firefox 2.0.0.2 (Bug 370521 – TextArea not firing onchange event) was caused by the checkin for (Bug 357684 – onchange on textbox not fired when onblur changes text value).  We are backing out the change in Bug 357684 to minimize risks and should have 2.0.0.2 rc5 builds soon.  This also pushes the Firefox target ship date out to Friday 2/23.
** [Friday 2/16] We had to respin for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=370445. so we now have 2.0.0.2 rc4 and 1.5.0.10 rc2 builds.  We also had to re-fix the permissions issue with DE (temporarily disabled watch for files effected), and will look for a more permanent fix for the next release.  QA and build are wrapping up work for these latest rc builds and are shooting for a target ship date of 2/22.
** [Monday 2/12] RC1 builds came out on Fri 2/9, and QA started the BFTs/FFTs. With no show stoppers found, we are moving forward with the l10n builds and should be on track with the schedules below.
** [Wednesday 2/7]  We finally landed the remaining blockers last night 2/6 and took a couple of minor fixes on the branch today.  Preed is going to be spinning RC1 builds today and we should have them ready for testing tomorrow 2/8.  If everything goes well and we complete the QA cycle with no major regressions and respins, we should be able to hit a target release date of 2/20.
** [Friday 2/2] We plan to land Vista changes on the branch by Monday and will hopefully have the 3 blocker bugs we are holding the release for checked in by then as well (bug 326877, bug 364297, and bug 360493).  Other blockers that land by 2/5 @ 10am will make it into RC1, and the rest will be pushed out (unless we slip again or need a respin, at which point we might make exceptions for landing).
<font color=darkred>NOTE: We are also moving forward with the [[Major_Update_1.5.0.x_to_2.0.0.x | '''Major Update push''']], dates TBD after the release of Firefox 1.5.0.10/2.0.0.2</font><br>
Dates below are no longer accurate due to recent respins, but build and QA are on top of things. :-)
