I will not be upgrading to Firefox 6 until the add-ons broken by Firefox 5 are fixed, especially since Firefox 6 threatens to break more of them.

You have released Firefox 6 without fixing the add-ons that were broken by the release of Firefox 5. I refuse to upgrade until most of them are fixed, especially since Firefox 6 threatens to break more add-ons.

Mozilla creates very few addons itself and those are up to date well beyond Firefox 6.0 from what I have seen. Each add-on developer is responsible for keeping their add-ons up to date with Firefox as new versions are released, some developers are better than others. IMO, if you have some add-ons that haven't been updated for Firefox 5.0 yet, two weeks after Firefox 6/0 was released, those add-ons are probably never going to be updated and you need to find suitable replacements for them.
