Details

The version numbers of Gecko and Firefox are getting increased from 66 to 67 today.

Flags: needinfo?(dylan)

geckoview67 should also be necessary.

Flags: needinfo?(ehumphries)

Chris usually requests the geckoview flags so checking with him to confirm.

We do not geckoview67 flags at this time. GeckoView will be focusing its development on the Nightly channel (because the Fenix team is using GeckoView Nightly), so we don't expect to uplift many GeckoView fixes for the next few months.

In fact, now that 65 is hitting the Release channel, you can hide the geckoview64, geckoview65, and geckoview66 flags from the Bugzilla UI. We won't be needing flags for those GeckoView versions. We can repurpose this bug for hiding those old flags, if you don't mind.

Thanks! I've confirmed that flags are now hidden.

It has been noticed "Target:" has "mozilla66" as highest value. Here "mozilla67" is required (for Firefox "Firefox 67" has been added).

Thank you in advance for adding it.

Which product is this in? Core?

Flags: needinfo?(ehumphries) → needinfo?(aryx.bugmail)

Now added to Testing.

Dylan, would you update the saneutils scripts to include Testing?

Flags: needinfo?(aryx.bugmail) → needinfo?(dylan)

btw, can you please also hide the approval‑mozilla‑geckoview64 uplift approval flag? The GECKOVIEW_64_RELBRANCH is dead.

You don't need to hide the approval‑mozilla‑geckoview65 flag. The GeckoView team might use the GECKOVIEW_65_RELBRANCH for a Focus experiment.

We stumbled upon the Taskcluster product which uses "mozillaXX" milestones but hasn't "mozilla66" and "mozilla67" available. See e.g. bug 1524911.

That is the sort of problem prompting bug 1404530.

NB: that bug is not about tracking flags, but milestones and versions.

Tracking flags are a model for what milestones and versions can do.

Saneutils only does product-at-a-time. When I update the documentation I'll make sure to include Testing.

Emma, I still see the status-geckoview66, tracking-geckoview66, and approval-mozilla-geckoview66 flags in the Bugzilla UI. The GeckoView team no longer cares about bugs or uplifts for version 66. Should I file a new bug? Should we close this reopened bug?

Flags: needinfo?(ehumphries)

Those are now disabled, but in the future, please file a bug to disable them.

I'm hoping to get delegation of flag management in bugzilla soon.

Thanks! I verified the geckoview66 flags are now hidden.

Cool! 👍
