This is the countdown to packaged app-ery.

Matt, What's the ETA on this? And what will the new hostname be? I'll need to update our GA profiles with this information. I believe you mentioned in a previous email that it might be something like "app:// origin" Let me know. Thanks. Gareth

We're hoping to get this done within Q3, though I'm not sure when we'll start shipping it. The new origin will be "app://marketplace.firefox.com", though potatolytics could potentially send URLs with the https: origin instead, keeping the data consistent.

I've created a true packaged app of the Marketplace. You can test it by installing "Inferno" from the Marketplace: https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/inferno You'll notice you're running the packaged app version if there's a cute orange sun next to the Marketplace logo. (Also if you go to the debug page, by searching for ":debug", you'll see the Package Version listed there.)

There is a package at http://d2gk.co/app/v/60/install/clouserw%40gmail.com%2CMarketplace Please open any bugs against it and block this. Thanks.

We've come a long way in this bug, including making several versions of the marketplace which are real packages. I'm going to close this bug out though, as being a real packaged app isn't on our roadmap anymore. See https://github.com/fxos/v3-architecture for where the v3 architecture is going.
