Otherwise this is a long-overdue improvement, though they could have learned a thing or two from other extension sites (e.g. erweiterungen.de in German) that still do many things better, more complete, and more user friendly.

I'll say it is the most important part of Mozilla Add-ons as screenshots are not always that helpful. It went down, as did this post and now it's back, as this post. Thanks.

It's unreasonable to expect localisers to translate metadata (description, changelogs, developer comments etc.) for 4500+ add-ons, so the add-on developer uploads the localised metadata themselves - it is expected that add-on developers will get this localised by the same people who localise their add-on. Oh and the site has been backed out (again) due to performance issues :( Add-on descriptions and metadata are able to be localised, just the add-on developer has to submit the data themselves and very few have yet chosen to do so.
