This week in Mozilla RelEng – January 17th, 2014 -- new format!
This week I'm going to try something new and try to report on in progress bugs in addition to completed ones. I finally got around to scripting this, too (at Catlee's urging), and thus the categories have changed to match the Release Engineering Bugzilla components exactly. The code that generates this is available in a github repository for the curious: In progress work (unresolved and not assigned to nobody):
- Buildduty
- General Automation
- mozilla-central should contain a pointer to the revision of all external B2G repos, not just gaia
- Schedule mochitests on debug B2G emulators on all trunk trees
