Hi,

0.15 RC1 has now been out for a few days. Looks pretty good.

>> > * November 20th: Firefox ESR is out


It's out and in Debian unstable.
I've asked Mike Hommey to push his changes to his Git repo.

I'll be happy to build / test / upload ESR11 .deb's later this week,
in time for 0.15 final. If Mike has not pushed to Git by then, I'll
have to do the git-import-dsc dance. We can still merge histories later.

I think it's acceptable to skip RC2: few translatable strings changes
staged for 0.15, no kernel update, only one DSA (tiff) since RC1, no
other expected one IIRC, no TorBrowser patches changes for a month.
If someone wants to prepare it anyway, then I'll be happy to prepare
the ESR11 .deb's ASAP so that it can be part of it.

If we skip RC2, then I can do most of the last bits of the release
process (upgrading bundled binary Debian packages as needed during the
week-end, building and uploading the final ISO on Monday), but I won't
be able to do more than about a third of the test suite, between
Monday and Tuesday. If someone else takes care of the rest on Tuesday,
then I think the release can be out on Tuesday night (CEST) or on
Wednesday. Another possibility is that someone else (anonym?) takes
care of the release process, and cherry-picks my help where needed.

Cheers,
