Stability Report

Socorro

  • Fennec 10.0.3esr (current release!) now supported well by recently added ESR support.
  • Socorro now generates correlation reports for new Firefox versions 14.0a1, 13.0a2, 12.0 in addition to the 3 crashiest ones, which include current releases.
  • Only small fixups in tomorrow's incremental release, as the big target now is to get ElasticSearch working ASAP.
  • If you have any specific issue you want solved in Socorro next quarter, please tell KaiRo about it.
