    I hope to write up a longer blog post on the mozilla hacks blog on how this works in the next couple of weeks.

    Hi,
    try to make a simple widget (cf : jetpack tuto).

    In my test dir:
    cfx init
    cfx run
    cfx run
    cfx xpi

    on ff8:
    go to my test dir
    click test.xpi

    but here the issue: FF8 alert ‘incompatibility between test.xpi and ff8’

    use : (addon-sdk-1.1)
