Activities last week:
Fixed bustage, release activities for TB 57, looked and fixed regressions, various reviews, misc. bug fixes, sheriffing. List below. Notable:
- More Necko bustage, fixed with Aceman's help.

Obstacles and impediments: Slow reviews as noted below, aka, the Mailnews Crisis Lack of response from M-C in some M-C bustages (NSPR and Necko)

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, some switched-off tests), Critical (opt builds with failures), Blocked (less than two platforms), Doomed.
