Review and analysis has resulted in a recommendation to have a '''transition period of two years (through Q1 2018) to maintain Firefox OS smartphone environment to support current users'''. In addition, Mozilla will keep monitoring activity metrics during this time, to have a confident measure of the real user activity in the wild. | Review and analysis has resulted in a recommendation to have a '''transition period of two years (through Q1 2018) to maintain Firefox OS smartphone environment to support current users'''.

===Marketplace and Third-Party apps=== | |||
There are the following topics covered in the Marketplace ramp-down plan: | |||
* FxOS 1.x user support: Support for 1.x users will be secured until June 2017. This means that after that date fixes to potential critical bugs that are only affecting to 1.x users will not be a priority. Otherwise FxOS 1.x users would continue having access to the marketplace. | |||
* FxOS 2.x user support: Support for 2.x users will stop in Q1 2018, when the potential decommission of the marketplace will be evaluated. | |||
* Operator Shelves and Operator Dashboard: Operator Shelf will continue enabled while marketplace is active (Q1 2018). | |||
* App submission: We can distinguish different cases here: | |||
** App submission for Tarako devices, and apps in China will be stopped in Q1 2016. | |||
** General app submission will continue up to June 2017. | |||
* Paid apps: Paid apps will be disabled in Q1 2016, as Mozilla Payments will be disabled then. | |||
* Maintenance of third-party apps: Mozilla will continue supporting content partners with special focus on the most popular apps in the marketplace. | |||
