Notices / Schedule

Firefox 4

• 22 non-blocklist bugs without patches (out of 51 open) that remain to be fixed to get to RC.
• 91 non-blockers being fixed in the past seven days, and 84 actual blockers fixed.
• 22 hardblockers remaining without patches.

400-500 bugs fixed since the beginning of January. This level of churn is too high to reach stability, so we need to focus more on hard blockers.

Firefox 3.6.14 and 3.5.17

• Still on hold while we investigate bug 633869
  • Looks like people have mismatched bits / frankeninstalls
  • Thanks to blake and chris for investigating from the JS side yesterday
• Adobe really wants us to release as they are worried one of the fixes will become a 0 day

Firefox 3.6.15 and 3.5.18

• Waiting to send draft schedule until 3.6.14/3.5.17 is resolved

Plugins

• Mac perf issues bounced pretty hard, but looks like we know what's going on
• Background painting looks like it might be ready to land, but there are perhaps perf regressions on the order of 1-5% Tp... kinda hard to tell from tryserver runs.
