Schedule change:

- 50 go-live date is Nov 15th (was Nov 8th). - ESR 45.5 go-live date is Nov 15th (was Nov 8th). - Merge day is Nov 14th (was Nov 7th). - Beta 51 cycle starts ~Nov 16th - Aurora 52 cycle starts ~Nov 18th. - Beta -> Release migration is Oct 31st (remains unchanged). - 50.1.0 (planned dot release) go-live date of Dec 13th remains unchanged. - 51 go-live date of Jan 24th remains unchanged.

*Why the change in schedule?*

- We decided to take two late uplifts (in m-b yesterday) re:add-on SDK (bugs 1309351 and 1309350)

- These two changes need more bake time on Beta channel. - RC mode for Fx50 starts on Oct 31st & we remain in code freeze mode for two weeks. - RC builds will be pushed out on an as-needed basis.

Please let me now if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks, Ritu _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
