OK, I think that's fine; thanks for the heads-up. It will be great to
have newer SpiderMonkey in GNOME 3.24.
I'll just request that you be prepared to revert to SpiderMonkey 31 for
the final release (e.g. by branching at some earlier commit) if people
start reporting unexpected compatibility issues with applications.

That's the backup plan, though I'm hoping we can instead use the coming month to fix any compatibility issues. I've already tested that gnome-shell works and Cosimo has tested gnome-documents and sushi.
Best,
Philip C
