“Post Release Process Meeting”:
Decision about Emergency Release or not for the Firefox bug: There will be no emergency release.
In a rather efficient meeting we went through the decision sheet and the result was quite clear, that there is no emergency release necessary. We decided to provide an installable hotfix. - The feature list from the J8 sprint is now public - thank you Benjamin! https://developer.joomla.org/news/1021-joomla-8-sprint-the-feature-list.html
