Hi! A few of us have been talking for the past few weeks about how to do extensions in Chromium. Here's a design doc that explains the beginning of our plan:
http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/extensions To start, we're going to focus mostly on the infrastructure for packaging, distributing, installing and managing extensions, without getting into lots of details about the specific APIs we'll support. We do know that we want to support something like Greasemonkey, which we refer to in the document as "content scripts". We also have thought some about toolbars, sidebars, and some more advanced APIs. But we realized that no matter what APIs we design, we will need to build this infrastructure before we can ship anything, so we decided we should start there. Once we get this lowest layer in place, we will turn our attention back to the APIs and add document detailing our plans for those. Right now, it is mainly Erik Kay, Matt Perry, Nick Baum, and myself working on this. But please let any of us know if you'd like to help, there is lots to do.
