It's worth noting that Mozilla is not going to be running the update
servers for FxOS. I'm 99% sure it's the telcos that will be, but it's
possible that it may be the manufacturer. I don't think it's safe to
assume anything about the availability of gecko/gaia updates for users
who built their own gonk. However, I also don't think we should be too
concerned about it. As with Desktop or Android Firefox, it's not a great
use of our time to commit to the same level of support for these sorts
of things.
