Does anyone know the exact time of release (I couldn't find it mentioned
anywhere)? 'Cause 17th June is about 48 hours long, what with all the
timezones.

See http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/faq

The D-Day is scheduled for June 17, presumably some at the morning PDT
(Mountain View, CA headquarter time zone) ~= GMT evening of June 17.
At the same time the exact hour is not specified because the release
is not released until released: and a last moment adjustment thus
delay are not expected but accounted.
