Christine Begle (cbegle) writes in npm.qa.general: "The Netscape Beta 1 Branch is a subset of code that is on the tip -- changes that are checked into the branch will also be checked into the tip.

Most of Netscape's QA staff will be focused on the Netscape Beta 1 Branch (nb1b). This means that changes that are checked only onto the tip may not be well-tested unless testers in the mozilla community step up to fill this role."

UPDATE! - Christine has put up a new doc for those interested in Smoketesting Mozilla. Also for those interested, there are usually folks in #mozillazine or #smoketest on irc.mozilla.org who can help you get started, and give pointers!

Thanks to everyone who responded; I will be posting more info soon.

For smoketesting, we've gotten a good response from people running Win32 and Linux. However, we really need some help from people running MacOS.

If you are on a Macintosh and can help smoketest the daily builds, you can have a big impact on the quality of Mozilla on the Macintosh.

We usually get started around 9:30 - 10AM PST on the #smoketest channel on irc.mozilla.org.
