Hi all,

I am happy to announce that we have now merged the Australis changes to the mozilla-central branch. If all goes according to plan, Australis will be present in tomorrow's nightly.

https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?rev=f2adb62d07eb

We have also merged the backout of Australis to the Holly branch. We may still want to make a branding change to Holly to make the difference clearer (suggested name is Holly), but that branding change hasn't happened yet.

Cheers!
Jared
