Notices / Schedule
- Schedule on the wiki
- Currently 34 unfixed blockers. If you're on that list, you own a blocker.
- Code freeze is in one week! June 16 at 11:59pm (but don't perendinate too long!)
- closed mozilla-central to all but approved patches and blockers on May 21
- only a few blockers (mostly Javascript correctness) remaining
- delivered "Firefox Preview" update to 800k+ beta users to get more feeedback and testing on the changes we've made over the past month

- RC will be built when it's ready
Blocker Report
- 7 blocker nominations
- 3 code blockers left without a fix, 11 non-code blockers
- 18 total outstanding blockers not marked fixed1.9.1/verified1.9.1 (6 of which are code-related)
- 14 patches approved over the last week
Summary
- excluded the rest of the stats; they're not really relevant
- we are fixing blockers very quickly, our test suites keep running further and finding that "one more issue"
- very strict on approvals now
- triage should be done at least twice a day
- need to only block on absolutely can't-ship-without-it issues
- need to think about backing out regression sources instead of trying to fix
Browser / Front End
- Blockers: 1 remaining & 0 nominations
- remaining bug is done, really - holding open in case any late-breaking locales go green
- oh yeah, we have a new product icon thanks to the hard work of Alex, Anthony at the IconFactory, and our distributed visual design team who helped us work through the iterations
- Firefox.next
- moving on to TSnap bugs which aim to make Firefox observably faster
- also returning to polish bugs and exploratory sprints
- Reminder to review the Firefox.Next plan and add your comments/feedback on the discussion page or in the dev-apps-firefox thread
