Is the Add-on SDK dead?

Is the Add-on SDK dead? This site.

http://www.palemoon.org/dev/addon-sdk/

I've written a bunch of Add-ons is there a way to recompile them for the new version? Are there new tools I should be using? I apologize if this is explained somewhere else but I can't find it.

Thanks

Support for many SDK addons is expected to be included in Pale Moon v27.1, so (while I've no personal knowledge) you may well be able to revive them - which I'm sure would be welcome.

There's more information in this post and the associated links that may be useful https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=14157&hilit=sdk&start=100#p103565.

Forked extensions :
● Add-ons Inspector ● Auto Text Link ● Copy As Plain Text ● Copy Hyperlink Text ● FireFTP button replacement ● gSearch Bar ● Navigation Bar Enhancer ● New Tab Links ● Number Tabs ● Print Preview Button and Keyboard Shortcut 2 ● Scrollbar Search Marker ● Simple Marker ● Tabs To Portfolio ● Update Alert ● Web Developer's Toolbox ● Zap Anything

Hint: If you expect a reply to your PM, allow replies...

And making new addons with SDK is not recommended, hence that site should be closed.
