At this point I don't think we have a plan to implement chrome.serial.
However, we are finishing up the implementation of native messaging (
https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/nativeMessaging) and it should be
relatively straightforward to build a serial-port bridge on top of native
messaging.
We'd also accept a webextensions implementation of chrome.serial if you
want to contribute it! I will happily introduce you to the webextensions
engineering team who can help with mentoring and reviews.

Java applet tech, as it will affect many users in our product community and
several products. As such, our dev team would like to better understand the
"drop dead date" of when the Java plugin will stop working in Firefox.
would like to know if Firefox will follow a similar path as Chrome to
provide a way to still manually enable the Java plugin for some time
(disabled by default), perhaps even past end of 2016.

corporations are resistant to running browsers other than IE and it took
some convincing on our part.
converting our web products to web based technology and away from the Java
plugin. We are concerned that if they switch to IE again, while we work to
replace Java applets, their IT departments might not approve going back
again to Firefox.
Hi,
I have an applet the communicates with client serial ports using
https://github.com/scream3r/java-simple-serial-connector, if I sign the
the jar and I use Java Web Start the applet has the permissions to
communicate.
The favorite browser of our clients is Firefox so I would re write the app.
In Chrome I solved with chrome app end extension using
https://developer.chrome.com/apps/serial and it runs very well but in
firefox there'is nothing like this.
1) something like chrome.serial in the future of firefox?
2) now what's the better solution?
3) What's the better moments to re write my app, considering the roadmap
of Web Extension?
Thanks
Marco

Hello,
Hope all is well. The company I work for uses Java applets for our web
products and we are currently planning our release schedules to replaceHope all is well. The company I work for uses Java applets for our web
Java applet tech, as it will affect many users in our product community and
several products. As such, our dev team would like to better understand the
"drop dead date" of when the Java plugin will stop working in Firefox.
We are aware that the announcement was for end of 2016, but wanted to
confirm if there is a more specific date other than 12/31/2016. Also, wewould like to know if Firefox will follow a similar path as Chrome to
provide a way to still manually enable the Java plugin for some time
(disabled by default), perhaps even past end of 2016.
We want our users to use Firefox instead of other browsers, especially
since we have had to run through some hoops to get our corporate clients toswitch from IE to Firefox for our web applications. For some reason, some
corporations are resistant to running browsers other than IE and it took
some convincing on our part.
Your response is greatly appreciated. We would prefer our user community
still use Firefox and not switch to IE, while we are working throughconverting our web products to web based technology and away from the Java
plugin. We are concerned that if they switch to IE again, while we work to
replace Java applets, their IT departments might not approve going back
again to Firefox.
