Dev Channel - Weekly Updates?
Reading through the info on the various channels, I see this as a notation for the Dev Channel. "it’s the best build of the week from the Canary channel." Based upon that tidbit, I was expecti...
Elliot Kirk So just to plan myself, all Dev releases will happen on Fridays?
cbomtempo - That would seem a reasonable deduction but alas, here it is Friday and no update! So it would seem that weekly or every seven days means nothing in reality.
Elliot Kirk - No problem with patience. However, clear insight into what we can really expect as far as a schedule for updates would be great. If the intent really is weekly, then a posting here on why the delay and when to actually expect the next update would be great.
Otherwise, we are In-The-Darkers rather than Insiders.

75.0.139.1 began rolling out to the Dev channel hours ago.
If you're really champing at the bit to get new builds, the Canary channel is where you want to be.Eric_Lawrence Not really champing at the bit to get new builds, but trying to understand what to expect from weekly builds, so I can plan myself to update the browser and look at the changes.
Based on the last 2 releases I guess it's safe to assume that we'll get a new Dev release every Friday morning PST.
Eric_Lawrence - Nope. Just anxious to get my weekly Dev fix. In a production environment, letting Canary flesh out the hiccups first seems the wiser choice.
Thanks for the heads-up on the new Dev though. A quick current version check triggered the update download even though the browser itself was not reflecting its availability.
Darrell Shannon I would guess, if it happens on every friday, it would happen at the end of friday, around 4 PM -07:00 UTC (Pacific Daylight Saving Time) - At the time I write this, I can see that it is just 06:24 AM in Redmond 🙂
Rahsna Asurac - The update was available bright and early last Friday, so anticipating the same would not be unreasonable. Fairly sure the process is queued up and a bit more automated than waiting on Fred to make it into work in Redmond and press the button.
