Hi everyone, Almost all of our tasks in CI now run with e10s enabled, we only run non-e10s with Fennec and Linux32. Yet the "default" state in terms of our CI, is still non- e10s. You can see this by the presence of "-e10s" suffixes in task labels and treeherder symbols.
To better reflect reality, I'd like to switch things around such that "e10s" becomes the default state and non-e10s tasks are the ones that need special labeling. In bug 1541527 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1541527> I have a patch that removes all "-e10s" suffixes from treeherder symbols and task labels, and adds a new "-fc" suffix to non-e10s tasks. This change could potentially cause disruptions to things like saved |mach try fuzzy| presets or ActiveData queries that depend on the task label. *If you can* *think of any other possible reasons to hold off from landing please let me* *know!* I'll wait a week for comment. Why -fc? The electrolysis of water is the process of using electricity to break down water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. A fuel cell is a device that can use oxygen to convert the chemical energy of hydrogen into electricity, aka the reverse process as electrolysis. Therefore "-fc" stands for "fuel cell", the opposite of e10s. This is why engineers shouldn't be allowed to name things.. other suggestions welcome. Let me know if you have questions or concerns!
