- Deployment of Bugzilla 4.2 to BMO being delayed because of issues with search functionality--the magic in some of the advanced searches was removed in 4.2, which actually means that some searches are no longer possible.
- The BMO team is fixing the 4.2 search to allow all the old functionality and make it explicit rather than with some implicit magic.
- HTML mail and a limit on search results are being backported to 4.0 in the mean time.
- xpcshell tests on otoro.
- Three Eideticker machines set up in Toronto for B2G and Fennec testing.
- Try/infra load has been exceptionally high the last few weeks - please cancel unwanted/busted test runs to reduce the load (dev.platform post).
- Discussions ongoing about switching off QT & RPM builds. If you have a reason why they shouldn't be - please comment in bug 772419 or dev.planning asap.
- The DB for TBPL has been trimmed by a massive 76GB \o/ (bug 703967).
- More notes here.
