As stated in IRC, we only created updates from 4.0b1 build3 -> 4.0b2 build2.

Just noting this as a bug, since we went from having the updates for 4.0b1 build 1 -> 4.0b1 build 2 -> 4.0b1 build 3.

It doesn't make sense in terms of consistency if we also didn't go from 4.0b2 build1 to 4.0b2 build2 as well.

The reason for that was we had no other release builds that would update to anything... 4.0b1 build1 was the first release build that could update to another build, so those were all we could test.

Since we now have a beta release out in the wild (4.0b1 build 3), it makes sense to test updating that build to the next build we may be releasing (4.0b2 build 2)

Ok, noting:
4.0b1 build 1 => 4.0b1 build 3
4.0b1 build 2 => 4.0b1 build 3
4.0b1 build 3 => 4.0b2 build 2

Would it be possible to include the 4.0b2 build 1/2 to 4.0b2 build 3 to verify the update button (located in about:firefox) that was introduced in 4.0b2 if there is a respin?

Try again now, I've set up a link to the update for 4.0b2 build1 to point to build 2

Thanks, Lukas.  It works now.

Now that we respun, I need to wait for build 3 to test.
