Hello,

As you are probably aware, we are going to publish a release between 38 & 39 (called 38.0.5).

In order to continue the development of 38 & 38.0.5 in parallel, we merged mozilla-beta (m-b)
into mozilla-release (m-r).

Before:
m-b = 38.0.0 beta
m-r = 37.0.2

Now:
m-b = 38.0.5 beta (even if we won't build any for now)
m-r = 38.0 beta (next one being beta7)

We will do regular m-r => m-b merges to make sure 38.0.5 is up to date.

This does not impact aurora (aka 39). In case we have to make a new 37 dot release, we would use
a relbranch.

The m-b tree is closed avoid any confusion.

Last but not least, uplift requests to 38 should be filled for mozilla-release
38.0.5 would be mozilla-beta. However, release managers and sheriffs will translate the information
if the uplift requests are incorrect.

The schedule has been updated, links can be found on this blog post:

On the behalf of the release management team,
