Hi, Sangyong!

  • "Ash" is one of the experimental branches. It may be used for several things and tests of bug fixes or new features.
  • "Mozilla Central" is where all the latest production source code is stored, and where the "nightly" builds come from.

If you want to read more about it, take a look on this topic at mozillaZine forums.
