You mean that will again be an 'after thought'?


No, we won't support plugins at all.


Nit: I wouldn't say we won't, but there are currently no plans to.


In the hypothesis Servo becomes Firefox's engine, this will be a blocker for Danish users. The government-mandated Nem-ID scheme uses a Java applet, and is used everywhere (taxes, banks, school system...).


A javascript version of Nem-ID is planned for release in 2014 [1].

Thank you. Then apt-get purge icedtea-7-plugin icedtea-6-plugin is planned for execution in 2014 as well.

Will you support add ons?


Yes, we're thinking about how best to do it. This is the kind of thing where ideas are quite welcome :)


I hope there will be no concept of "not restartless" add-ons. ... Thanks :)
