New Tab dialog is to aggressive in onboarding users, let's rollback to the fx40 version. We hope this results in not needing any new string translation. Currently: http://cl.ly/420B1k2V111y Change back to: http://cl.ly/2E183y1w300p
NI: nchapman - can you confirm this plan with appropriate stakeholders.

A thousand (1000) times yes.

I spoke to the various stakeholders and everyone is comfortable using the previous, less intrusive experience. It would be useful to see the text variations that we could use to make the messaging as close to the actual experience as we can. After we've decided on the text to use in this stop-gap measure, let's figure out what we want the new text to be going forward.

:oyiptong are you the right person to pick this up? We can log a new bug if we want a clean/eng implementation bug.

This bug is fine as an implementation bug

Are we keeping this sentence? "Some of these tiles may be sponsored by Mozilla partners". Should we remove it, it needs to be localized.
Nick, can you confirm the is an exact rollback? Deletes require translation as well. That seems to be the best plan rollback a bad user experience for now, till we can improve it and let that ride the trains.

:oyiptong yeah for the sake of time let's keep that sentence. Let's also work on new text in parallel and get that localized as soon as we can. :edwong do we talk to Matej about that?

bug 1229636 has landed and removes the strings. The modal dialog doesn't show up anymore. However, as it comes to re-implementing the old explanation panel, it can't be a rollback. The old page was implemented using XUL and was ported over to xhtml and e10s. We will need to implement a new panel in the page.
