Versions of Fennec built against mozilla-central and mozilla-1.9.2 have the same version number. This will make it impossible to provide updates for both branches since we cannot distinguish between them in AUS. Not sure about the best way to fix this: * new mobile-1.9.2 repo * merge mobile-browser into mozilla-central * ???

Will releases of Fennec built from 1.9.2 and mozilla-central have the same version numbers? I would think that a release of Fennec built from 1.9.2 would have a different version number than a release from mozilla-central. I guess my point is: will we need to upgrade a Fennec 1.xx release built from two or more branches of mozilla? I suspect any given release of Fennec will be built against exactly one branch. Fennec 1.0 (release) is being built from mozilla-1.9.2, not from mozilla-central

(In reply to comment #0) > * merge mobile-browser into mozilla-central I think this is actually my preferred solution - though I suspect it might be unpopular with other mobile devs. Having a separate repo is nice because it's small (quicker to clone, etc.), but I think that's about the only real advantage...

We don't plan to ship that, sure, but it's mighty confusing to have Fennec builds with the same frontend code but different xulrunner code have the same version numbers, which, AIUI, is what this bug is about.

it seems like we need AUS to support 2 versions, one for the app and one for the platform, along with using GUIDs for the app name, rather than a name ("firefox") which is already going to conflict.

So, we should generate WinMO updates and urls with the assumption that AUS is changed to support GUIDs? (AUS work in bug#540007 is currently marked blocking)
