There is not a solid future plan for xpinstall. I would like to remove it entirely if possible (in favor of only supporting extensions). We know that it already doesn't work on Windows Vista. We are certainly working on removing support for xpinstall as a standalone installer (as opposed to an install mechanism from within the app). > my understanding is that xulrunner 1.3 (firefox 2+) will use the NSIS > installer? Firefox has used the NSIS installer since Firefox 2.0. I expect that whenever XULRunner grows an installer it will either be an MSI or a NSIS installer. --BDS _______________________________________________ dev-tech-xpinstall mailing list dev-tech-xpinstall@... https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-xpinstall
