In case anybody ask about why the extension would break, we have dozens of XPCOM binary components that'd need to be recompiled for each major version. The toolbar is not part of that experience at this moment. That does not give us enough time to ensure stability in our extensions.Īt this moment, we're focusing on a consistent extension experience for all browsers, so that we can focus on bringing new features and consistent support for everybody rapidly instead of focusing on fixing broken extensions every time Mozilla releases a Everything is certainly possible but the rapid schedule that Mozilla has made for new Firefox updates are forcing us to develop a new extension from the ground up, so that it does not break every time Mozilla releases a new Firefox update which is every 6 weeks. The changes we made does not make it feasible to include the toolbar (not a limitation of Firefox 6 but within our extension). What should've been explained is that we had to make the change to our extension to make it compatible with Firefox 6 and future versions. I'm not sure where the confusion came from. We didn't say that Mozilla has done away with the toolbar support.
