Hi everyone,

Thanks to everyone for helping us to create a consistent and stable
localized user experience with our new Android browser, Fenix. The Fenix
team has been hard at work! While progressively migrating users from Fennec
Nightly and Beta channels to Fenix, they've also launched a release
experiment to measure user retention. *Assuming the results of that
experiment are positive, we'll see the release channel migration start as
early as July*. This gives us all a little more than a month to create a
good user experience for users in your locale by completing and testing
localization. Below is the important information you need to know:

*Milestones*
- String freeze date: *12 June*
- L10n freeze date: *29 June*
- Fenix release channel migration: *July, at the earliest*

*Current progress*
- Average Fenix completion percentage across all locales: *78% (4%
increase)*
- Average Fennec completion percentage across all locales: *90%*


*Important info*
- Just a reminder, you can find the Fenix Nightly builds in the Google Play
Store [1] for testing your localization. *Please take the time to test!*
Your language will appear in the app settings once you begin localizing the
project in Pontoon and the Fenix team imports your locale into the build
process. If you don't localize the project, your language will not appear
in the builds. Please note that at least Android 5 is necessary to use and
test Fenix on an Android device.

Now that things are picking up speed again with Fenix, I'll return to
sending this update out on a weekly basis. We're thrilled to see Fenix
become a more useful version of the browser we all love on Android. Thank
you in advance for your help to make this possible!

Jeff
