> Firefox 3.1 Beta 2 will likely be released the first week of
> December.  With Beta 2 we're making the promise that we won't be
> changing interfaces that break add-ons so now is the time to start
> updating.  We have added a Beta 3 to our schedule.  With Beta 3 we
> will start aggressively pushing Firefox out into users' hands, so it's
> important that in between Beta 2 and Beta 3 that your add-ons are
> updated, otherwise we will have problems getting users to update.
>
> The best way to keep up to date about what's going on with add-ons is
> to subscribe to the very high-signal about:addons newsletter.  It's
> easy, it's friendly and it's delivered to your mailbox on a regular
> basis.

> https://addons.mozilla.org/newsletter/subscribe.html
>
> You should also follow the Mozilla add-ons blog which has regular
> updates about important information related to add-ons:
>
> http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/
>
> If you're worried about how much work this will be, don't.  Most add-
> ons won't require changes in order to support Firefox 3.1.  Based on
> feedback from people that have already updated we have started the
> process of documenting those changes at the Mozilla Developer Center:
>
> https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Updating_extensions_for_Firefox_3.1
>
> You can also see the overall changes for developers on the developer's
> page for 3.1:

> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Firefox_3.1_for_developers
>
> If you want to ask for help or to give us feedback, please refer to:
> http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2008/11/27/firefox-31-beta-2-time-to- 
> start-updating-add-ons/
>
> Beta 2 is the start of our push to get people updated.  The newsletter
> and the weblog will be updated as we move to the next beta.  So
> thanks, and happy updating!
