Hi All,

This week we rolled FxA train-43 into production, and I forgot to send
out the announcement ahead of time because I was dealing with a post-PTO
inbox deluge.  Belatedly, we have the following highlights:


* The oauth server will now refuse to start if it's in production mode
  but not configured to process account-deletion events.

* The web-based sync setup flow now supports a "fx_ios_v1" context to
  indicate that the connecting device is Firefox for iOS.  This
  currently causes new account creations to be disabled, until Firefox
  for iOS grows the necessary logic to handle that flow.

* Users migrating from the legacy sync system now receive custom
  messaging to clarify that they need to create a new account, and
  cannot use their old sync credentials.

* There's now an easter egg in the web console on accounts.firefox.com.

* Attempts to access auth-protected pages on accounts.firefox.com will
  now correctly bounce the user through the sign-in screen and back to
  the requested page; previously the user would be redirected to the
  settings page after signing in.

* Hindi (hi) and Hindi-India (hi-IN) are now supported as production
  locales.

* When available, we now use sendBeacon for sending page metrics.

* Several edge-cases in oauth error handling have been cleaned up to
  produce less confusing behaviour.

* Sessions that originated in the first-run sync signup flow can no
  longer sign out on the web; they must do so through the browser's
  native UI.

* Proxied requests to the basket API now include an explicit timeout,
  to provide cleaner handling of basket service outages.

* We no longer show a blank profile image when your session token is
  expired.


As always, you can dig into the details through the CHANGELOG files in
each individual repo:
