I recently have worked on a script in Greasemonkey and would like to publish it as an add-on for Firefox. What is the easiest way to do this?

Just post your script at
userscripts.org1 OpenUserJS.org (Or one of the other userscripts.org replacements).Trying to repackage it as an add-on is usually more trouble than it is worth.
If you really must, you can use the Greasemonkey script compiler to turn your script into an “add-on”, and then submit that add-on to Mozilla, via the normal add-on process.
Note that Wladimir’s answer is better than the Greasemonkey script compiler.
1 Userscripts.org is now long dead.
