We have two set of changes happening in 68. The following locales are being removed from builds: as, bn-BD, bn-IN, en-ZA, mai, ml, or. Nightly builds have already stopped. We're also removing them from Beta, but the change to stop building will ride the trains with 68. bn-BD, bn-IN users need to be redirected to `bn`. That's a new locale that we're adding in 68, so the redirect can only happen one channel at a time (i.e. we won't have builds on Beta until 68 moves there). as, en-ZA, mai, ml, or need to be redirect to `en-GB`. Technically we could do all channels now, but we're still making builds for them, so people could still download them. I thought it could make sense to group all locales in one bug, and file one bug for each distribution channel (aurora, beta, release, esr). If there's a better process for RelEng, please let me know.
