+* '''NOTE: this was not done: "pull stage:/data/cltbld/firefox-3.0b2/batch1/stage-signed/" '''
+* Done manually using these installer-signing-instructions [https://intranet.mozilla.org/Build:Unified_Release_Process#Sign_builds here]
+* push signed bits back to same location on stage
+* complete stage-merged:
+ # on stage

 ====Update Bouncer====
+* already done for rc1
 ====Final Verification====
+* manually verified files under /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0b4/stage-merged/
+** looked ok.
+* VERIFYFIX verified that filename problems from 3.b2 have been fixed. {{bug|409394}}
+** verified ok.
 ====Push to mirrors====
+* push the stage-merged directory to the releases area:
+ # on stage
+ rsync -av /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0b4/stage-merged/ /home/ftp/pub/firefox/releases/3.0b4/
+* TODO: note that in /data/cltbld, the "firefox-3.0b4" directory should probably be "firefox-3.0b4rc2". This would make it easier to confirm changes between RCs. This is done for some releases not all; should we always do this?
+====Updates to Beta Channel====
+'''In case you need to cancel/abort updates, the quickest way to do this is [https://intranet.mozilla.org/Build:Farm:Tinderbox_Maintenance#Starting.2FStopping_Tinderbox_on_win32]'''

+ sed -i.bak 's/betatest/releasetest/' releasetest.cfg
+ ./verify.sh -t releasetest.cfg 2>&1 | tee releasetest.log
+ # upload result to build.m.o/logs
+Should be all HTTP/200 OK results e.g.:
+ grep 'HTTP' releasetest.log  | grep -v Found | grep -v 200
+* On aus2-staging, ensure that releasetest channel contents match beta channel contents
+ cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging/20080308-Firefox-3.0b4

+No difs found - which is correct.
+* Once QA and Website gives formal "go"
+ # put snippets on beta
+ # login to aus2-staging

 == Wall clock timings ==
+== Stopping live updates (just in case!) ==
+If QA finds a problem with updates *after* we start pushing updates "live", the one-and-only-one way we know to stop updates from further spreading is by killing all updates!
