I noticed 8 open pull request and the Gnome runtime is outdated, is development still active?

ramcq commented 5 years ago

I suspect the momentum will have been significantly reduced now that the Fedora alternate-universe Flatpak build system has produced a Firefox flatpak. https://registry.fedoraproject.org/repo/firefox/tags/

@ramcq that URL shows nothing for me, or is that a remote that i can add and install firefox from?

ramcq commented 5 years ago

Oh, that's the wrong link. That's the OCI registry for Fedora, which their RPM -> Flatpak woodchipper outputs to. I don't actually know how to add the remote in Flatpak though.

This repository's website states:

We're committed to updating this repository until we state otherwise on this website.

So if it's dead and/or unsupported, it might be wise to update that.

For my part, I was using Firefox nightly builds from this repo. I then started hitting issues other web developers couldn't reproduce. After a bit of digging, I discovered that the nightly build hadn't been updated since late August.

So now I'm on the Fedora stable flatpak, but before investigating this issue tracker, I checked the website to see that verbiage still in place. Maybe it was naive of me to think that would be taken down if maintenance ever lapsed, but I took it at face value. :)
