As a small update.
The merge from Beta to Release took a long time to complete.

The guys had some blockers, one of them being bug 964578 (which I see is now fixed).
I had a chat with :bajaj on IRC to keep up do date with the merge.

Unfortunately by 3:50 AM it wasn't still done.

I just woke up at 7:50 ish and it seems its finally done, yet the trees are still closed because of an infra issue (I had setup some monitoring tools alerting me when the trees get reopened).

It seems I missed when they actually done the merge.

I now pushed our changes for mozilla-beta to mozilla release.

http://hg.mozilla.org/qa/mozmill-tests/rev/33a476fcf808 (mozilla-release) tag

We'll need to retrigger the some tests.

In total we had 8 testsruns (OSX functional and remote) that ran before I managed to push the merge.

I've retriggered all of them, so we're good.

Thanks Andrei! Given that we should not depend on such crazy hours, we will have to work on some kind of automation which can actually do the merge for us. I put this topic into our goals proposal but it will most likely not make Q1.

Well no one needs to stand up that late.

At that hour we only needed to run `hg push` once the merge has been actually done.
I'm not sure we can fully automate this.

A reliable notification once the merge has been completed on the specified branch should be enough.

We've merged our branches prior to the actual merges.
Please keep the mozmill-tests trees closed until that is actually done.
