Last Friday, we announced that Persona is transitioning to community ownership. You can read more on the Identity blog at http://identity.mozilla.com/post/78873831485/transitioning-persona-to-community-ownership | |||
The most important points: | |||
* Mozilla ''is'' still supporting Persona. We're just not funding new feature development. | |||
* Many of the original paid contributors are still working on Persona in their free time, alongside long-time community contributors. | |||
* Persona is Open Source! Join us in #identity and #persona and help us fix authentication on the web! :-) | |||
As for why the change is happening: [http://identity.mozilla.com/post/78873831485/transitioning-persona-to-community-ownership Read the blog post]! In short, we didn't see as much adoption as we were hoping for by this point, nor did we see a clear path to adoption by other browsers / major email providers. Instead of piling on features, we've decided to keep Persona focused on what we know it does well: simple, email-based authentication. | |||
