Please request sec-approval? for patches in hidden security bugs before landing -- spread the word. Obvious patches need to wait for the middle-end of a cycle, and be prepared to uplift such patches to the aurora and beta branches. In the request comment please help us balance the need for testing against the risk of premature disclosure. | |||

** We still need to get symbols for these crashes to make them useful (which requires builds coming from releng infrastructure). | |||
** we also need content crashes as well as ui for crashes. | |||
* Discussions on UX flow nearing final decision, will need implementation soon. | |||
** This should be decided tomorrow? | |||
* Work is ongoing on getting content crashes to work and getting annotations up - see dependencies of {{bug|b2g-crash-reporting}}. | |||
