I think it is effectively part of/superseded by Web Authentication, which is mentioned and links to:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/mozilla.dev.platform/t...

First sentence in that thread is "Web Authentication is backward compatible with FIDO U2F second-factor tokens, and also supports more advanced capabilities in future FIDO 2.0 devices."

Yup, just came to edit my comment after reading the Web Authentication bit, guess will leave it if anyone has the same question.
Yes, WebAuthentication will supersede U2F and it's backward compatible (meaning you can use your Yubikeys, but the API is different).
