I mean, FxA is out, https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/android/56.0beta/releasenotes/  But desktop isn't yet (Any minute now, patience for the QE signoff)

I take it back. It looks like we marked desktop (at least, maybe dev-ed too ) shipped in ship-it earlier today around 9am PST - though we were not actually ready to ship, and updates were not turned on.  We have now actually shipped and I am publishing the release notes.  Thanks for reporting this!
