I have an appointment today and will likely miss this meeting.

• Most Android tests are now hidden, due to excessive failure rates: see bug 777436. (Android tests are still run. To see them, add &noignore=1 to your tbpl URL, or click "Show all Android tests" on tbpl.)
• I have been working on OOM failures during mochitests: bug 775227. Certain tests seem to cause OOM; disabling them seems to improve mochitest pass rates.
• There are also frequent Tegra reboots during tests (bug 771626). A-Team hopes to deploy a fix for that today.
• Next week: Continue to isolate OOM failures in mochitests and get more tests un-hidden.
