In 2019 we can expect to focus on cross-product analysis. With multistore (bug 1494991) data collection becomes easier, but we still have a lot of client work to do.
This will cover the project of designing and building Firefox Desktop's "Ecosystem Telemetry" system.

:chutten (or :janerik if you feel inspired to dive in!) how much of this bug tree is still relevant given the changed details of ecosystem telemetry? I want to get some bugs filed for the client-side work and I'm not sure whether it's better to start from this tree and refactor it a bit, or to close it out and make a fresh one from scratch. Thoughts?
(TL;DR on the "changed details" for those not following along: the original design for ecosystem telemetry had a uid
field that was a HMAC of the user's account id and was split into separate "pre-account" and "post-account" pings; the current design uses an ecosystem_anon_id
field which is an encrypted version of a secret derived from the user's account master key, and has only a single type of ping).

As far as I understand it the plans for Ecosystem Telemetry changed enough that it makes sense to start fresh.
The current code is currently deactivated, though still in-tree. It can still be re-used, but hopefully become a lot simpler now.
But I'll wait for :chutten's input as well, he's more familiar with the new plan I think.

Yeah, I'll close down this tree for now. Bugs are cheap and the design's moved along enough that the contents of the bugs in this tree aren't terribly relevant.

Dependent bugs closed. Closing meta.

Thanks both! I filed a new meta-bug at Bug 1635652 and will add some tasks to it based on latest plans.
