Christian, do you want to turn off nightly updates on aurora for a few days ?

Dunno if Mobile wants to do this too.

[09:25]	<mbrubeck>	aki: It probably doesn't matter either way... we have ~60 ADU on Aurora.  :P
[09:25]	<mfinkle>	aki: what ever is easier for you

Nick: r=me with or without mobile aurora updates being throttled.

Turning off nightlies, and turning off nightly updates can be done separately. Which do you want here ?

Nightly updates. We'd still like the builds for QA to look at. Even better, if we can stick them on a "auroratest" channel so QA can look at the updates that would be ideal and potentially save a step down the road.

We could probably do pre-merge-aurora -> post-merge-aurora testing with a bit of AUS config and QA setting the channel to auroratest. But that disables the channel switcher. Would that be useful ?

Not sure that buys us anything...we know the updater in pre-merge aurora is good, it's the updater in post-merge aurora we really need to test.

Err, of course it buys us testing the updates we'd ship, doh. I think we can deal with "nice to haves" later.

[Nick Thomas [:nthomas] (UTC+12)]

Sorry, the nightly updates post-merge were implicit in comment #7. We know from m-c that nightly updates work OK, right ?

Comment 12

[LegNeato]

Yep

The summary of this bug is complete, so I'm going to close it out. I'm confused about what we want on auroratest, or not, so please file a followup for that.
