Comment 19 for bug 1043461

And following on from Jamie's comment about a 0-day update for Firefox when 12.10 is released - at this stage of the 6-week release cycle (for Firefox), all addons should be compatible with the next release already. I expect to have functioning, compatible addons to be available at the start of every beta cycle so that we can offer them to our beta audience (https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-next). We already ensure this is the case for our other addons.

For Firefox 16, this means that compatible addons should have been available by the end of August, and any changes necessary to make addons work with Firefox 17 should be complete by 9th October (with only critical bug-fixes during the 6-week beta cycle after that). This should be no problem though, seeing as you're all tracking nightly builds of Firefox, right?? ;) (and if not, this is pretty much mandatory for addon developers).
