MARKETPLACE DEV
26th-Jan: Message in an unmissable spot on Marketplace
"The Marketplace will shut down on March 30th, 2018. If there are any apps that you would like, and have not downloaded yet, please do so before March 30, 2018. See the wiki for more background."
MARKETPLACE DEV ENGAGEMENT
Fri 26th Jan - Email to developers: (DDurst)
Dear Developer -
We announced in March 2016 that the Firefox OS Marketplace will remain open until at least January 2018. We have since made the decision to shut down Firefox Marketplace on March 30th of this year. Thank you so much for your participation in this project. Together we grew Marketplace to touch over 50M unique users, in over 30 countries and 50 languages and explored the boundaries of the web across multiple platforms. Your contributions and expertise have been greatly appreciated!
With sincerest thanks,
Firefox OS Marketplace Team
WIKI

Is there any way for developers to download their stuff?
We will get that question from developers, and we can tell them at that time to go ahead and download their apps.
Caitlin and Durst will ensure the changes on 26th-Jan are synced

Apologies to everyone who has offered localizations, but the final text has changed a little, and is in bug 1433481.
