We are writing to inform you that the WebThings project is being spun out of Mozilla as an independent open source project.

The project will be renamed from “Mozilla WebThings” to “WebThings” and will move to a new home at webthings.io.
Why is this happening?
Mozilla is winding down its direct investment in WebThings and is transitioning control and responsibility to the community. It is important this happens in a way that allows easy continued contribution to the project as an open source effort, and so all the WebThings Gateways running around the world continue to function properly.

To enable that independence from Mozilla some changes will be needed in how the project is named as well as how project infrastructure operates.

What does this mean for my *.mozilla-iot.org domain?
If you access your gateway remotely using Mozilla’s secure tunnelling service at a *.mozilla-iot.org domain then this service will continue to operate until 31st December 2020.

Before that date, we plan for a replacement service to be made available at webthings.io and you will have the option of transferring to that service before Mozilla’s servers are shut down.
