Solution to frequent compatibility updates | Not started. Rough plan under review. | 2011-06-01 | Justin Scott |
Summary
The manual, multi-month add-on compatibility process that has been used in previous releases of Firefox is not feasible for quarterly releases.
Add-ons that don’t use binary components should not require manual compatibility updates with new Firefox releases unless directly affected by a compatibility change. Such breaking compatibility changes should be minimal and well-documented.
