FYI, the 46 release will be delayed a week. If I'm understanding this
correctly, this will delay the merge date by one week, which also gives us
another week of development on 48 Nightly:

But don't rest easy! Make sure all your work for 48 is done as planned, and
we can just use that extra week for miscellaneous bug fixes.

Hello release drivers and others,

During the 46 beta cycle various issues delayed or prevented several beta
releases. In order to get better crash data and to be able to respond to
crashes reported this week in beta 7, 8, and 9, we are going to delay
shipping Firefox 46 by one week.  We plan to ship beta 9 this Thursday, and
beta 10 and 11 next week.  Firefox 46 is now planned for release on April
26.

The beta cycle for Firefox 47 was planned to be seven weeks, releasing on
June 7.    We will shorten that cycle to six weeks.  The release date for
Firefox 47 will still be June 7th. Therefore, we don't need to adjust the
calendar for the rest of the year. We're just "stealing" a week from beta
47 and using it to extend beta 46.

You can see the release schedule from our public calendars linked from
here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management

One calendar has just the merge and release dates. The other calendar has
more details and is mostly used by release managers and release engineers.

Hope this is clear. Please ask if you have any questions - email is fine,
or on irc you can find me as lizzard on #relman or #release-drivers.

Best,

Liz
