Firefox 1.0.1 auto-update rollout

• All localisations done except Japanese
• One mirror isn't mirroring properly
• 700,000 - 1,000,000 download a day across various releases
• Firefox 1.0 downloads dropped to a trickle (< 10,000 a day)
• 6,000,000 of 1.0.1 and the 1.0.1 update. Guess: 1M new, 5M upgrades?
• Want to modify the 1.0 Firefox start page to add a critical update notice

Thunderbird 1.0.1

• Started work on this last week
• Security fix verification and functional testing this week
• Testing candidate pushed to the community if we get remaining fixes in by tomorrow
• Ship by week's end

Mozilla 1.7.6

• This is scheduled for the following week after TB 1.1
• Then focus shifts to the trunk

Mozilla 1.8b2

• Current plan: 1.8b2 freeze March 16th, ship 18th
• We're not going to hit those dates; should we add a beta3?
• Drivers to work it out
• Shouldn't branch until we've shipped a Firefox alpha or equivalent off the trunk

Firefox 1.1

• Made progress on planning last week
• Getting closer to a schedule
• Taken more work on than we originally planned
• Original goal was to sync up with the trunk and ship it, but there are regressions, things that didn't land, and a few new features

Thunderbird 1.1

• A bit further on in the planning than Firefox 1.1
• Less changes

UMO load

• More capacity online recently
• 1M downloads a day doesn't break sweat
