Hi everyone, After many faithful years of service, the legacy gadgets API is now officially deprecated. The complete announcement is available on the iGoogle Developer Blog: http://igoogledeveloper.blogspot.com/2009/09/more-things-change-more-they-stay-same.html, but here are the important details:
* The legacy API is officially deprecated as of today, September 14th. * For three months, the legacy API will continue in its current state. * On or around December 14th, any new gadget submissions to the iGoogle directory must be using gadgets.*, in order to be accepted, but existing gadgets may continue to use the legacy API. * On the same date, the remaining inlined gadgets will be disabled. * Finally, one year after deprecation, September 14th, 2010, gadgets using the legacy API will cease to function on iGoogle, and the majority of other Google-owned gadget containers (such as orkut, Gmail, and Calendar). In summary: all new gadgets should use the gadgets.* API. All existing gadgets have one year to migrate to gadgets.*. I'll be posting a migration guide and an XML conversion tool in the next few weeks to help the transition. Let me know if you have any questions.
