QAWANTED ([http://bit.ly/IhfxAz query])
* {{bug|729507}} Crash in JSObject::finish - unable to reproduce crash with Yandex, any other leads we can pursue?
 
Nightly Betas Proposal
* Daily checkpoint for automation (as we do now with Nightly & Aurora)
* Staggered weekly checkpoint for smoketests, feature sign-offs, and exploratory testing
* Weekly checkpoint for bug fix verification progress, tracking to 0-bugs before release
* Should also do more to encourage a wider dog-fooding audience
* Q) How do we do a dry-run with weekly Betas?
 
Pre-release Software Proposal
* Current Coverage:
** Marcia dog-foods OSX 10.8 "once in a while", I'm not sure we have anyone doing the same for Win8
** Marcia dog-foods the official Flash Betas when they appear on labs.adobe.com
** Flash is tested every week in our Firefox Beta sign-offs (mostly regression tests against the current Flash release)
* Proposal: treat pre-release OS and Flash as "features"
** If OSX 10.8 is due out around the same time as Firefox 14 (June), add it to the "feature sign-offs" for Firefox 14 (marcia)
** If Win 8 is due out around the same time as Firefox 16 (October), add it to the "feature sign-offs" for Firefox 16 (juanb)
** Adobe puts out weekly sandboxed Betas; once a week we put this through a suite of regression and "feature" tests against the lastest Firefox Beta (ashughes)

* Rapid Betas update
** L10n scoping for rapid betas, no blockers there
** How is crashkill/socorro doing?
