bkerensachrisccoulson: Ubuntu removes Telemetry from Firefox Nightly apparently?16:20
bkerensachrisccoulson: If I build Nightly from source I get Telemetry feature under Data Choices16:20
bkerensabut if I use our Nightly PPA then nothing16:20
kbrosnanbkerensa: i would guess that it would show up in about:buildconfig16:55
bkerensakbrosnan: I just went to about:telemetry and enabled it16:56
bkerensaI hope that is actually submits data and is not disabled somewhere else16:56
bkerensa:D16:56
kbrosnanin the ubuntu version it would tell you if they disable it when building16:58
bkerensakbrosnan: they do and apparently its intentional17:10
chrisccoulsonyes, it's intentional17:11
chrisccoulson1 second, on a call atm. will explain more after17:11
bkerensakk17:12
bkerensaMy understanding is its just for official builds? But if I manually enable it under about:telemetry does it send data still and is this data still useful to Mozilla?17:13
chrisccoulsonthe main reason we disable telemetry is that when i discussed the idea of enabling it, it was suggested that we should leave it disabled because we might skew results from official builds (with our different toolchain / build config)17:23
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure if that opinion has changed or not though17:23
bkerensachrisccoulson: hmm... well I'm not keen on downloading a nightly daily from Moz site especially since I have no idea how to drop it into unity launcher17:24
bkerensabut I want my data to be helpful at same time17:24
