Re: Development Mode will not be supported in Firefox 27+

There's a developer version of Firefox coming out:

Maybe we can ask Mozilla to export the C++ symbols in this developer version, so the GWT dev plugin can work on this developer version of Firefox.

Mozilla has stopped exporting some C++ symbols that the Firefox plugin relies on [1]. Therefore it's not possible to support Development Mode in any new versions of Firefox starting with 27.

As a workaround, I am doing one last release to get the plugin working again with Firefox 24.2 (and hopefully newer point releases on the ESR track). If you wish to continue to use Development Mode on Firefox, you will need to download this version from Mozilla [2]. For more details see the issue tracker [3]. 

Long-term, the plan is to improve Super Dev Mode.

I apologize for the late notice; when I said at GWT.create that Firefox could stop working with any release, I didn't expect it to be the next one.
