Major Topics for This Week

Tree status and approvals
The Mozilla-Inbound and Mozilla-Central trees are in "approval mode" in an effort to minimize risk. Any mobile beta blocker or release blocker is cleared to land. Use "a=blocking-fennec" on the checkin. Soft blockers must get an explicit approval from a driver based on the risk-level of the patch. Too risky? Doesn't land in Fx14.
