We are targeting a release of the new web version at 6AM Pacific on Tuesday, March 12th. Ideally we would like this open Beta release to be at or around the same time.

Note, I think we should close 1494393 in favor of this

Looks like we need a new release:

Per [e-mail]:
ok, so, I see two options:

1. we reuse the old key, bump the version to 2 (or the date+hour)
2. we use the new key, we update the apk id (org.mozilla.sendandroid for something else), and create a new app (but don't forget the google latency on approval)

I think we should roll with option 2 since we were asked to use the new key yesterday

Ok. Since it requires changing the apk id, the change will take a little longer.

Attachment: This version has a new package name, org.mozilla.firefoxsend, and generates send.firefox.com links instead of send2.dev.lcip.org.
