In order to make non backwards compatible changes to the API, we need to introduce a versioning scheme. Right now URLs are of the form http://s.a.m.o/%LOCALE%/%APP%/api/call This will change for future versions to include a version number, probably something like http://s.a.m.o/%LOCALE%/%APP%/api/version/call Current URLs will remain valid but deprecated so we don't break Fx3b3.

I had a stupid logic error in the first patch. Try this instead.

Fixed in r10615. The version number can be added directly after the API, e.g.: https://services.addons.mozilla.org/%LOCALE%/%APP%/[api_version]/api/search/foo The current version of the API to be used with Fx3 b4 is 0.9. If no version number is supplied it defaults to 0 which will be compatible with Fx3 b3. (ie nothing should break).
