We're ready to start freezing and closing down for the upcoming Firefox 3.1 Beta 3. In order to do so, we'll need to lock down the trees to ensure that we're reducing the churn for the final set of patches that need to be landed.
As of now, mozilla-central and mozilla-1.9.1 are to be CLOSED for the following specific set of checkins:
After these landings we'll keep the mozilla1.9.1 tree closed to let it cycle a few times before we spin our builds starting late tonight, PST (which is midday, NZT!)
> As soon as these land and the trees cycle green, we'll re-open > mozilla-central to regular checkins.
All of these patches have now landed (just need mrbkap to mark his last one as fixed!). As soon as mozilla-central cycles green (mrbkap should be watching, at least!), #developers can feel free to re-open the tree.
There are still 9 bugs that need to land on mozilla-1.9.1 before we can hand off that tree to Release Engineering to start Firefox 3.1 Beta builds. Those bugs are:
Nick Thomas is standing by to start builds once we land those bugs on mozilla-1.9.1 and the trees cycle green. I would ask that the people responsible for those landings reply to this thread as they land their bugs.

The tree cycled green just now, and I have re-opened mozilla-central. Please (please!) continue to be responsible and if you check something in, stick around to watch the unit tests cycle before leaving IRC. If you're not around and an orange can't be explained after your check in, you will be backed out!
The mozilla-1.9.1 tree will remain closed for Beta 3 freeze. There are now 4 bugs that need to land on mozilla-1.9.1 before we can hand off that tree to Release Engineering to start Firefox 3.1 Beta builds. Those bugs are:
It's now 7:30pm in New Zealand, so we've missed our window with Nick Thomas. Blake, Rob, please get these fixes landed on 1.9.1 ASAP so we can start with builds tomorrow.

The trees have cycled green several times now (aside from an explainable orange or two) so I think we're ready to hand off to build at:

Just to wrap up, last night we tagged and started builds on Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 and re-opened the mozilla-1.9.1 tree. Anyone with:
- patches for bugs that are marked blocking1.9.1+ or blocking- firefox3.1+, or - patches marked with approval1.9.1+, or - patches that add or fix tests or are not part of the Firefox build
may once again check into the mozilla-1.9.1 repository.
