Activities last week:
Fixed bustage, uplifts and release activities for TB 56 beta 4 and TB 52.4 ESR, looked for and fixed regressions, various reviews, misc. bug fixes, sheriffing. List below. Notable:
- Fixed severe Necko and DOM bustage, got chat working again

Obstacles and impediments:
Slow reviews as noted below, eleven and eight weeks delay so far.
Build/release support has resumed a week ago, so the situation has improved a lot. Still open: No automatic Daily updates, no L10n Dailies.

General remarks:
C-C tree status: Critical (details below), no manpower to investigate various intermittent test failures.

Jörg.


Tree status classification: Green, Normal (some failures), Deteriorating (many failures, opt builds still green), Critical (opt builds with failures affecting compaction functionality). Additionally I had to switch off tests failing due to bustage, Blocked (less than two platforms), Doomed.
