Firefox 3.6.13 and 3.5.16

  • Released to the beta audience yesterday
    • 3.6.13 is throttled @ 25%
    • 3.5.16 is not throttled as AUS can't support what we want and there are very little testers on the beta channel anyway

Jetpack SDK 0.10

  • major deliverables all landed or pushed off as not beta blockers (except for one for which we're still trying to determine status)
  • product-wide reviews over the last week identified a set of remaining issues, mostly around exposure of experimental, internal, or obsolete APIs and functionality
