[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

Soft Freeze / Merge Date: 2022-07-21 / 2022-07-25 (from the Release Management Calendar)
More details about any of those tasks can be found at: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools/release.html

Anytime during the release:

• [✅] outdated backward compatibility code removed (doc, searchfox)
• [✅] outdated telemetry probes removed (bz query)
• [✅] add a needinfo in devtools-qa bugs (bz query)
• [✅] Update MDN data for the Compatibility panel:
  • [✅] Update compat data in mozilla-central
  • [✅] Update browser data in Remote Settings
  • For both tasks, follow devtools/shared/compatibility/README.md

Close to the end of the release

• [✅] smoke test for remote debugging against version 103 (doc)
• [✅] smoke test for remote debugging against the same version (version 104) (same doc)
• [✅] check xpcshell debugging (doc)

Marionette and BiDi:

• [✅] close to the end of release (~1 week), based on the list of bugs fixed during the release, update Marionette release notes on MDN for 103: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/103#webdriver_conformance_marionette.
• [✅] right after the release of Firefox 103, send a mail to the dev-webdriver mailing list.

Template suggestion for the Marionette email (adjust wording if relevant):

Firefox 103 has just been released, containing updates for our WebDriver (BiDi, Marionette) support.
