(Add note about maxVersion)
Line 47: Line 47:


There is some duplication of information here. The min/maxVersions are also present in the update manifest but including them in this root manifest allows us to decide what new add-ons need to be installed and which need to be removed without making any secondary requests.

Here a specific maxVersion is present but we could equally use a maxVersion of "*" (or say that a missing maxVersion property defaults to "*") to say that a system add-on is compatible with all future versions and then change that at a later date.


The actual host of the update manifest and the XPIs that it points to doesn't matter to the client code. It could be AMO or something new.
