==== 3.2 ====
* Initial [http://groups.google.com/group/tb-planning/browse_frm/thread/f2a72996faae24f6 tb-planning thread], quick summary:
** 3.2 based off a comm-1.9.2 with mozilla-1.9.2 with limited back-ported features and fixes.
** Would allow some API changes (many for extensions benefit) and string changes.
** Next trunk release would be after FF 4 ships, possibly as little as one month, depending on what state our trunk is in, features landed etc.
* Extra work if the branch would be setup now.


==== Major updates to 3.1 ====
* Flags for tracking purposes will be set up soon, with a wiki page explaining roughly what will be able to land etc.
 
* Waiting on account provisioning progression before setting up a relbranch.

Bug planning for 1.0b3 has started, a list of 26 bugs is proposed. See [http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.apps.calendar/browse_thread/thread/e91afc3d291475ad/ newsgroup thread]
When we are done with this list, we can either release 1.0b3 or nominate a new set of bugs.
