Re: Soft code freeze for Firefox 61 starts April 26
The final central -> beta merge has happened and the Gecko version number on m-c has been bumped to 62. The Nightly soft freeze is OVER. Also, any patches intended to ship in Firefox 61 from this point on will need to receive Beta approval.

Re: Soft code freeze for Firefox 61 starts April 26
As a follow-up, the soft freeze is officially in effect until the version bump to 62 takes place on Monday, May 7th. Please use discretion when pushing changes to mozilla-central between now and then.

Re: Soft code freeze for Firefox 61 starts April 26
Just a reminder that this is now less than a week away. Please be mindful of any large/risky patches targeting 61 as time is running low to land them before the soft freeze begins.

Soft code freeze for Firefox 61 starts April 26
Hi all, On April 26th, we will be merging Firefox 61 from mozilla-central to beta for the first time. In order to avoid invalidating the testing we get out of late nightly and the early Developer Edition builds and to ensure that we can roll out Beta 61 to a wider audience with confidence, we'd like to ask that any risky changes be avoided from April 26th until after the version bump to 62 on May 7th. Some reminders for during the soft code freeze: Do: - Be ready to backout patches that cause crash spikes, new crashes, severe regressions - Monitor new regressions and escalate merge blockers - Support release management by prioritizing fixing of merge blockers Do Not: - Land a risky patch or a large patch - Land new features (that affects the current nightly version) — be mindful that code behind NIGHTLY_BUILD or RELEASE_OR_BETA ifdefs can lead to unexpected CI results - Flip prefs that enable new Features that were untested in Nightly cycle - Plan to kick off new experiments that might impact a feature's merge readiness Please let us know if you have any questions/concerns.
