I maintain a small extension to toggle proxy configurations and had to completely rewrite it to support webextensions and even though it still carries the same name/branding, it is a completely different extension regarding its features (still better than letting users down). I feel sorry for people who put a lot of effort maintaining their extensions who now have to either abandon them and their users or completely rewrite their extensions. -- Athos Ribeiro http://www.ime.usp.br/~athoscr _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
