So where does that leave us on Universal OS X builds? IIRC our blocker is the need to support 32-bit Silverlight in the plugin container so various streaming services using it don't break. Where are we on that front? (Reminder: killing Universal OS X packages will make automation builds significantly faster and will reduce the DMG size by almost half.)
I don't know the status of 32-bit Silverlight on OS X, but we're shipping Widevine support in Firefox 47 (for Windows 7+ and OS X 10.6+). Streaming services will have an easy migration path from Silverlight to their existing Widevine player code.
That said, I don't expect the long-tail of streaming services to complete this transition before the end of 2016, when we already plan to drop NPAPI plugins.
