Please be explicit about turning on Android updates. We have had effectively 0 users of Holly branch, whereas desktop had some people who actively opted out of Australis by using it.

New tooling on our side - we also need to know the buildid you'd like us to serve while things are disabled.

This is something we can look up on our own...buildid is 20131209004003 in this case.

I moved the Aurora updates to point at that buildid for Fennec/Firefox. The instructions are at https://wiki.mozilla.org/ReleaseEngineering/How_To/Enable_or_Disable_Updates_on_Aurora, but they don't seem to be clear enough - so we should chat about improving them.

I clarified this with kbrosnan on IRC - he's referring to when we re-enable updates on Aurora.

So is this fixed now and ready for verification?

Yes, this was complete at comment #3. Lets close this until it's time to reverse it.

Confirmed that my local Aurora builds do not update further than 20131209004003 on the aurora channel.
