Analyse all the bugs that landed during the 148 nightly cycle. 
The goal is to identify new features and important changes and create release notes for end-users. 
I am providing you a json file that contains data for all the bugs that were included during the 148 development cycle. 
This JSON is an export of all the bugs from bugzilla.mozilla.org via its public API. 
The bugzilla documentation for the API is here https://bmo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/index.html 

In our release notes we have several sections: 
NEW 
FIXED 
CHANGED

We are happy to announce that the Storage API feature is ready for testing in Firefox Nightly Desktop!
Storage API
 
The Storage API allows Web sites to find out how much space users can use (quota), how much they are already using (usage) and can also tell Firefox to store this data persistently and per origin. This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS). You can also use Storage APIs via Web Workers.
 
There are plenty of APIs that can be used for storage, e.g.,  localStorage, IndexedDB. The data stored for a Web site managed by Storage API — which is defined by the Storage Standard specification — includes:
 

    IndexedDB databases
    Cache API data
