Actually, *now* we did.

shipped-locales wasn't landed up to now.

I'm tempted to reassign my late-landing bugs to someone in MV for 
upcoming releases, there's apparently no way to get an OK for a landing 
remotely. I just merrily violated the tree rules now and landed.

Firefox 3.1 Beta 1 / mozilla-central tree status

(reply/followup to dev-planning <at> lists.mozilla.org /  
mozilla.dev.planning)

Hi everyone,

We're still working through the regressions identified after code  
freeze on Tuesday; the work proceeds as quickly as possible, but is  
limited due to the time required to get the performance data. While  
this happens, the mozilla-central tree remains frozen.

So far we've managed to get the following two bugs removed from the  
critical path:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364315 - fixed
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458047 - declared non- 
regression

which leaves the following:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458048 - Drag & Drop of  
tabs crashing browser with new API
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458065 - Windows Txul/ 
Tdhtml regression, afternoon of 2008-09-29

left to work through. There may be one other, as well - please reply  
if you see that I'm missing something here.

In addition, we'd like to see the following land once those  
regressions are worked out:
