(Whiteboard: [FXGrowth]) 

Build:
* language: vi
* win32
* version: Firefox 40.0 release
* add-on to package: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/avim/

We need a funnel cake of the Vietnamese FX with the above add-on pre-installed. The add-on is already signed. I am indifferent as per displaying the page that normally appears after the add-on is installed (about:addons) . I would say... whatever is easier for you when setting up this funnelcake.

Context: We believe that FX in Vietnamese is very hard to use without this add-on so we will be testing the impact of including it in the build by distributing it to a small segment of the Vietnamese downloads.

According to Nick Thomas, we would need to:
-generate funnelcake config (via Shane Caraveo or whomever he recommends), includes unpacked xpi
-ask RelEng to generate funnelcake builds
-have this build QA'd
-ask RelEng to setup hosting

Additional details about the test are here: https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/FIREFOX/Vietnam+Funnelcake+with+AVIM+Pre-Installed

Thanks for your help. Let me know if you need any additional details.
When would you like the build to be done by ?
Ideally, I'd like to start distributing it by September 2nd or 3rd at latest. Anything before then is certainly welcome.

Context: I need to distribute it for a few days to then let about a 1 month of data stream in from the build. I will be presenting results at the end of September.

Thanks
Shane, do you have some to set up the config ?
Flags: needinfo?(mixedpuppy)
Nick, speaking to CMore, he said I should also request a 2nd funnelcake with no changes made to it (just a new build) so we can more easily measure the success/failure of this test. 

I believe there are no settings to be prepared by Shane for this 2nd funnelcake.

Thanks
A second funnelcake is fine. We still need a config for that, but it's fairly small.
We need to make sure both funnelcakes are added to the funnelcake master tracker:

funnelcake 45 & 46?
and built from 40.0.2 win32 vi.

I'll make sure to add them to the doc once Shane and Nick to complete them and I have the numbers and release versions.
Any updates Shane or Nick?

Nick, are you still waiting after a config or do you have that?

Cheers,

Shane is the master of configs, and I'm pretty swamped, so I'd prefer to wait for a config from him (see ni? at commment #3).

We should try to avoid having me as a blocker on funnelcake, these should be easy enough for most anyone to build out.

New funnelcakes in the github project.

Thanks Shane! Very much appreciated.

The growth team's summer intern (Francesco) is coming back this fall (part-time) and his primary task will be to look into how we can streamline these funnelcakes a bit more. We want to remove as much work as possible off of your plate as well as releng.

Would there be any reason not to build them against 40.0.3 since that is what's current now?

Also, where should I put the repacked builds once they're ready?

Please use the most current build. If possible, also let us know if there is a chem spill so that we can pull these funnelcakes down.

Please host the files on https://download.mozilla.org/ and provide the URLs here.

Do we need someone to QA these builds once they're made?

I created the configs, but did no QA on them.  One of the builds includes an addon, I'd probably at least make sure it works.

I can do double check that install works and that the add-on is properly pre-installed but is there someone that usually does a more thorough testing? Or should that be sufficient?

Funnelcake builds are up for verification:

I've installed both funnelcakes on a virtualmachine and confirm that f45 has the add-on preinstalled.

I'm having someone verify the Vietnamese add-on as I write this.

Nick: is there anything else to do with bouncer for this?
Flags: needinfo?(nthomas)
Yes, I added a couple of products & locations.

Steps
1, visit https://bounceradmin.mozilla.com/admin/mirror/location/add/
2, click the green + icon next for Product
3, In the popup, set Product name: 'Firefox-40.0.3-SSL-f45', enable 'Serve Over SSL Only', click Save
4, Back on Add location, set OS: 'win', Path: '/firefox/releases/40.0.3-funnelcake45/win32/vi/Firefox Setup 40.0.3.exe', and click 'Save and add another'
5, Repeat 2-4 with Product 'Firefox-40.0.3-SSL-f46' and Path '/firefox/releases/40.0.3-funnelcake46/win32/vi/Firefox Setup 40.0.3.exe'
6, Wait 5+ minutes
7, Verify these urls work  (bonus points for checking hashes to guard against transposition errors)
   https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-40.0.3-SSL-f45&os=win&lang=vi
   https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-40.0.3-SSL-f46&os=win&lang=vi

Notes to future release engineers - if we do a multilocale funnelcake we would make two changes. The paths should use ':lang' instead of vi (or en-US or a single locale value). For bonus points specify all the valid locales in the Product add popup.

Over to the Growth team.
