Hi,
XPCOM / XUL based add-ons will be deprecated in Firefox. [1]
I've searched trac, mailing list, irc logs... I know you are aware of that, but haven't found your plan forward. Is there already one?
What are your plans regarding tor-launcher? Will tor-launcher be ported over as Firefox WebExtension? Is that even possible?
We investigated what we would need for porting the extensions over to Webextensions a while ago in https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/17248. The current plan has not changed: we still plan to port our extensions over to the Webextensions framework. It might need some upstream changes which we would provide with own patches but we'll see.
