1474401 - Replace firefox-dev in PLACES_DATABASE_CORRUPTION_HANDLING_STAGE and PLACES_MOST_RECENT_EXPIRED_VISIT_DAYS

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Places, enhancement)

Description

[Chris H-C :chutten]

Upon reviewing the list of Telemetry histograms we found two PLACES metrics that us the firefox-dev@ mailing list in their alert_emails field.

This means in event of a Telemetry Alert being fired, it will be sent to the entirety of firefox-dev.

The alert_emails field has been shown to be most useful when it has an individual or a small team's address in it (or both!) as it both ensures that any such Alerts are received only by individuals who likely understand what the change means (and maybe even why it happened) and acts as a useful lookup in case someone later has a question about the probe and needs to ask questions of someone about it.

Is there someone who is willing to take on such a role for the following probes:

PLACES_DATABASE_CORRUPTION_HANDLING_STAGE
PLACES_MOST_RECENT_EXPIRED_VISIT_DAYS

If not, should we remove the probes?

The probe owner should be an actual contact and not a mailing list
