[tor-qa] Stable TBB QA v2.2.37-2

[Mike Perry]

I am standing in for Runa as the announcer this week, but with any luck
we can replace these announcement mails with a script soon enough.

We have two TBB releases today: a stable and an alpha. Be sure to limit
replies in this thread to reports on the stable series. We want to get
the stable release out ASAP (within about 24 hours). An alpha post will
follow shortly, and it will be given more time for feedback (let's say
60 hours). Please test the alpha more thoroughly, but also please
prioritize the stable release to make sure it is at least functional.

If you decide to test both releases, please reply to each thread
individually. If you have additional comments or concerns about the
process or test urls, please start new threads rather than reply here.

The stable bundles update Firefox to 10.0.6esr, Vidalia to 0.2.20, and
NoScript to 2.4.8. Please see Docs/changelog in the bundles for details.

You can find the stable bundles themselves for Linux, Mac OSX, and
Windows at: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/stable/

Linux users: As you know, life is always hard for you, but that's ok
because it makes you stronger; make sure you get the 2.2.37-2 version,
not the stale 2.2.37-1 version.

Also note: We are short on Windows testers, especially those with wacky
AV software. If that's you, we would love to hear your input for at
least one of the two releases.

You have until July 27th 2012 06:00 UTC to test and report back. Please
email this list directly with results or if you have any questions. Keep
in mind that an email saying "I tested TBB on Debian Wheezy and found no
bugs" is just as useful as a list of issues. I think my own personal
favorite response format so far was:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-qa/2012-June/000004.html but
as always feel free to innovate and improve on that. Note: I'm pretty
sure we don't need your specific CPU string, only x86 vs x64.

For testing ideas, see the BuildSignoff wiki page and the TBB design
document for information about different types of tests you can perform:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/build/BuildSignoff#DocumentationChecklist
https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser/design/#Testing



Thank you for helping us make the Tor Browser Bundle better. Again,
please don't hesitate to email if you have questions. If you have any
suggestions on things we can do better, please let me know.


Thanks!
