My reading of the announcements indicated that this was happening in Firefox 40, which is very soon. It was not at all clear that there was some kind of step by step process (indeed, this message was the first time I picked up on that, despite reading this thread fairly closely -- perhaps communications being clearer would have helped). I suspect a lot of this kerfuffle could have been dodged had the original posting been a little more thorough and more cautiously worded. Trying to tease these nuances out of a long and emotional thread has been difficult, unfortunately. It was not clear until quite a few messages into the thread that this wasn't all happening at once, and wasn't automatically being applied to all servers. It sounded very much as if all unencrypted HTTP was going to be rejected starting in Firefox 40. Now that I know that's not the case, I'm much less concerned, although not 100% living in happy unicorns and rainbows land. -- Eric Shepherd Senior Technical Writer Mozilla Blog: http://www.bitstampede.com/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/sheppy _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
