Notices/Schedule (lsblakk/sylvestre/lmandel)

Next Merge: July 8, 2024		Next Release: July 9, 2024
Trains
Central: 129	Aurora: 54	Beta: 128	Release: 127

• FXOS v2.2 update : Please note that has diverged from mainline gecko and is on its own b2g37 branch. mozilla-aurora (gecko 37) will continuously be merged to mozilla-b2g37_v2_2 . So, if you have a gecko bug that you are fixing on aurora and impacts b2g as well, you do not have to worry about requesting approval twice as the sheriff's will auto-merge it for you.
