Details

from bug 799563 "We currently redirect marketplace.firefox.com to where the marketplace actually lives on marketplace.mozilla.org. We need that to be reversed so marketplace.mozilla.org becomes the redirect." and "installs_allowed in the manifest will need updating in the docs (and the validator too). We could run a quick script see how many manifests set this and then contact those developers and let them know." This needs to happen before (at least a week really) to avoid breaking app installation.

Andy - do you have time for this? Target is all active developers of active apps which have marketplace.mozilla.org specified in their manifest. I'll get copy.

Guys - Can we please hold on this until we resolve the contention issues brought up in bug 804634? I'd really rather avoid doing outreach when a plan could change, as that sends a bad message to top apps if we say one thing, then quickly change our minds to the other. I also don't know right now if it's valid that we can even specify marketplace.firefox.com and marketplace.mozilla.org in the installs_allowed_from field, given that one will involve a redirect to a different origin. I need to find out if that's even allowed for redirects (which I doubt it is).

(In reply to Andy McKay [:andym] from comment #5) > Can I get some text for the mail please? See comment 4. We're on hold until we get a mitigation strategy clearly defined for how to migrate over to marketplace.firefox.com safely, which currently, isn't figured out yet.
