> “Starting in January in Chrome 112, Chrome may run experiments to turn off support for Manifest V2 extensions in Canary, Dev, and Beta channels. Starting in June in Chrome 115, Chrome may run experiments to turn off support for Manifest V2 extensions in all channels, including stable channel.
This sentence suggests that Chrome 112 is launching in January.
Now I checked https://chromestatus.com/roadmap. In it, even the Beta for Chrome 112 is shipping in March 2023, not January or February. So did David intend to refer to Chrome 110 (which has a beta in January) or am I misunderstanding how the rollouts work here?

How did you make the list of "Known issues"?
I don't see https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1285664#c10
which is a blocker for us

- January 2023: Chrome Web Store stops accepting updates to existing Manifest V2 extensions
This effectively makes it so Jan 2023 is still the target for MV3, at least for us. It's too risky to have a period of time where we can't ship any updates or urgent bug-fixes to our users. Is there any leeway on this policy? It would be great if we had a couple extra months to work on and test the MV3 update, but with the above policy, that is a non-starter.
It feels blatantly obvious that the bare minimum should be >= 5MB.
Hi Simeon, you mention in the known issues document that the expected timeline for off-screen documents is "Canary support around October, 2022". I am not familiar with the feature rollout plan from Canary->Dev->Beta->Stable. So I ask, will off-screen documents ship in Chrome Stable release on January 10th?

So did David intend to refer to Chrome 110 (which has a beta in January) or am I misunderstanding how the rollouts work here?Nope, I think you're right. This is a case where as we worked on the timeline doc we just missed this. Thanks for calling it out :)
@Simeon, will there be any change in the policy with regards to webRequestBlocking permission?

This is a case where as we worked on the timeline doc we just missed this. Thanks for calling it out :)AHHHH shoot, I didn't read closely enough the first time. The version number here is confusing, even for me.Normally when we reference a specific Chrome version we are usually talking about the Stable channel. In this case, though, we're talking about experimenting in the Canary, Beta, and Dev channels. Normally we bump the version number on Canary when a new branch is cut. According to Chromium Dash, Milestone 111 will be cut on Jan 26, 2023, which means that Canary will reach 112 before the end of January.This is all more confusing than it needs to be. Moving forward, I'd like to find a better way of communicating timeline info that doesn't require a bunch of esoteric knowledge about Chromium's release process.@Simeon, will there be any change in the policy with regards to webRequestBlocking permission?No changes are currently being considered on this front. The reasons we're moving away from webRequestBlocking are rooted in its permission requirements (requires host permission grants) and execution model (imperative, sequential, multi-process).
