 Replying to [comment:24 gk]:

 The current metric for the slider was looking at sec-high and sec-critical
 bugs that got fixed on the release channel. Just looking at mozilla50
 might spoil our metrics.

 You make a good point. It is difficult to tell if a bug made it into an
 actual release (at least I am not sure how to tell). If it did, it should
 be included in the Mozilla Security Advisory list, and I did find a couple
 of items there:
  https://www.mozilla.org/en-
 US/security/advisories/mfsa2016-85/#CVE-2016-5277
  https://www.mozilla.org/en-
 US/security/advisories/mfsa2017-01/#CVE-2017-5379
 But there is always a collection of memory safety bugs for which little
 detail is available, and I cannot see all of the bugs. I did find one bug
 that way:
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1289701

 > > c) As part of our release procedures, do we double-check the HPKP
 expiration? We do not want to have a repeat of the problem where the pins
 expired. Mozilla seems to have bugs for each release, e.g.,

 the previous comment). :)

 Oops. I think I am repeating myself. I think I am repeating myself.
