Notes

Meeting Schedule

  • The current meeting times, 2:00pm are not great for people on the East Coast and Europe.
  • We propose moving the times to make it more accomodating for others.
  • Tues @1:00pm, Thurs @10:00am.
  • Beta meeting time change - defer for now.

RelEng Todos

  • l10n repos are now setup
  • Beta
    • Make a real beta - 5.0b1
    • When we move over to the release channel do we have to do a rebuild? Yes. That wasn't everybody's understanding of how this was going to work. There is an issue to discuss - noted.
    • We will be making the repository change
    • On schedule for this week (hoping)
  • Snippets for moving users to Aurora
    • bug 651283
    • Worried about manual updates replacing something that is already there.
    • Seems like the pool of users we are talking about is smaller than we thought - some discrepancy in the data.
    • We can look at migrating the beta channel people but there are still concerns about how we market this - stability of the channel.
    • We could disable generating Aurora builds every night - we would kick off a build manually. Can be done immediately.
    • Next Actions
      • Need to figure out how to message these beta users. They will be moved into something that is branded differently. Probably need a start page, branding experience etc.
      • Turn off the nightly builds for Aurora and build as needed.
      • Axel: Don't see the messaging around Aurora builds mapping what we have on the release or handled in other languages. We want to restrict this to US-EN. What is going into the 110n builds is not close to Beta quality.
      • Rob: Talk to Christian, Mayumi, John and put together a proposal by the end of the day.

Recording Process Decisions

Stability

  • Only 14K users so not getting great stability data - the numbers aren't very meaningful.
  • A few of the crashes we are tracking are getting much activity.
