Release Engineering

• tegras
  • 8 talos suites, 3 unittest suites live.
  • 2 more unittest suites + a unittest fix landing between embargoes?
  • Stability work continues:
    • 3 tegras connected right now;
    • a lot of the issues we're seeing are due to timing. Bear has some fixes coming along; once we're on the switched PDU we should be able to write a script to keep these up in an automated fashion.

• working with IT to avoid until after Fennec4.0; need a "no build RC1 before" date
• FYI: branching decisions coming soon for mozilla-central.
  • Anything you need landed before branching?

QA

• Results from the Testday included lots of uptake on the test harness and 3 bugs found
