+= Notes =
+== Build 1 ==
+=== Ship the l10n milestone ===
+Created and shipped the Fennec and Firefox l10n milestones on the l10n dashboard.
+=== Land config updates ===
+* Landed configuration updates
+* Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, and tools with {FIREFOX,FENNEC}_17_0b2_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
+* Reconfiged build and scheduler masters
+=== Run release sanity and start automation ===
+On buildbot-master36:
+<pre>
+cd /builds/buildbot/build_scheduler/master
+source ../bin/activate
+PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u bhearsum \
+    -V 17.0b2 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \
+    --release-config release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py \
+    --release-config release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --products firefox,fennec  \
+    --dryrun localhost:9001
+</pre>
+Got this error on first run:
+<pre>
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+  File "../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py", line 443, in <module>
+    releaseConfigFile,
+  File "../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py", line 213, in verify_configs
+    if not compare(l10n_changesets, changesets):
+  File "/builds/buildbot/build_scheduler/tools/lib/python/util/file.py", line 13, in compare
+    file2 = open(file2, 'r', True)
+IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'l10n-changesets_mobile-beta.json'
+</pre>
+...which is because we're missing symlinks after moving to multimaster. Ran the following to fix it:
+ ln -s ../buildbot-configs/mozilla/l10n-changesets_* .
+Release sanity passed after that, ran the following command to start the release:
+<pre>
+PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u bhearsum \
+    -V 17.0b2 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \
+    --release-config release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py \
+    --release-config release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --products firefox,fennec  \
