When will non-WebExtension API add-ons stop living?

Hi Folks,

  1. If I upload non WebExtension API add-on right now, when will it stop functioning on user’s browsers?

  2. Until when will AMO accept for reviewing non WebExtensions API add-ons?

Thanks for your help,
Larry

Hi,

By the end of 2017, and with the release of Firefox 57, we’ll move to WebExtensions exclusively, and will stop loading any other extension types on desktop. To help ensure any new extensions work beyond the end of 2017, AMO will stop accepting any new extensions for signing that are not WebExtensions in Firefox 53.
