==[[Silent_Update_OS_Dialogs|Removal of OS security dialog for Windows]]==
Owner: Brian (Dev), Simona Badau (QA)

* Expect to land the security bugs on Friday
* Finished libmar test suite, it needs review from rs
* Fixed some test failures on non Windows platforms (was only running tests before on Windows only elm)
* Debugged problem due to hg fail
* Things I still want to test that Simona cannot test manually:

  * Do a major version change on elm to make sure the version downgrade security bug
  * Test not having the MAR define defined, not having an ini file
  * Test manually setting the new error codes and make sure the fallback works.

* QA: ^ why not? will this be covered via Automation? 
* re from Brian: These can't be tested without doing a temporary push to the repo and then reverting it.
