Last week:

• Robotium tweaks continue, but it's quite stable and ready to use: See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android#Robotium
• Investigated bug 716948 - LinkedIn buttons are blank when viewing invitation -- it was a dup
• Mostly worked on bug 696095 - Create Fennec startupCache at build time
  • I can build the startupCache at build package time via the Android emulator and update the APK; need some releng work, etc to land...but I'm not seeing performance improvements to justify the increase in build time, etc. -- still investigating.

Next week:

• Try to wrap up bug 696095.
• Bug 705192 - remotexpcshelltests.py cannot execute xpcshell via SUT agent
