- Release Management - Bhavana Bajaj will join us via Video Conference.
- What iteration are we looking at to sync with the release cycle? Do we have a goal here? Here's the link to Relase Management Calendar to help sync up the dates https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar
- We should peek into metrics to get win8 ADI's on nightly(~20,000) ,aurora(<20,000) & beta(~95,000) to see if we are targeting the needed user population and have a strategy around uplift's.
- Do our updates work fine? We should do a round of update testing on different win8 configurations . We never want to leave user's stranded an old build.
- L10n - How many locales are we planning on supporting ? Do we have a cut-off on this for launch?
- Stability - Given the limited population on nightly it is hard to get attention or track any new crashers. But once we move up the trains this will change. So we will need more Engineering/QA attention to help resolve these (https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/products/MetroFirefox)
- Get query of blockers ready to help track right bugs (metro-aurora-blockers, metro-beta-blockers).
- Branding concerns ?
