Okay so it sounds like Telemetry webextension api is coming! but its not going to be until Firefox 60, which is scheduled for release on May 9th
8:35 PM So we have 2 options as far as removing bootstrap goes
8:35 PM 1. I create a webextension experiment api for sending telemetry events (Could be super simple, or could get hairy, I don't know at this point)
8:36 PM 2. Create a branch where I remove all the rest of the bootstrap stuff and implement telemetry pings to match the coming webextension api, which will be merged right after the firefox 60 release in march.
8:36 PM Both should satisfy the OKR
8:37 PM Concerns against option 2 would be removal of capability to create embedded webextensions before then, (I will try and get a hard date for that now, but I was told it's a while away)
8:39 PM Concerns against option 1, Since I am unsure of what work it will take to actually implement the telmetry utils wrapped in the experiment api, I may not have it completed before End of this weekend when I leave for PTO. Which would push the tasks onto fzzzy or someone else on the team. Or we miss the okr, my heart fills with shame and we pick it up after I
8:39 PM get back from PTO
