Hi Jessica, deadline might be a bit hard, considering that we're in the middle of the Spring Campaign work (ending on June 2nd).

I assume the link for Firefox Account is about:accounts, for Hello is www.mozilla.org/firefox/hello. Is it correct?

What's the link for these two?

Some more issues before I can go ahead. Unfortunately I'll be traveling from Friday to Monday, so we risk to lose several days. 

My suggestion would be to consider the deadline as flexible, especially considering that we should strive to have 3 weeks for localization.

Pocket: pt-BR is not one of the locales we're shipping Pocket in (de, es-ES, ja, ru). Do you still want them?

Mobile snippets: it's the same already used in Desktop, but more important is 159 characters in English, when the limit is 140. Do we want to use it or need a new one?

 for Hello is

Link for Hello - it will not be going to the landing page but the doorhanger on people's chrome browser.
