Thanks for the update to bugmenot, one of my favorites (it’s now required for any FF installs I perform for family and friends… :) ). Just a minor nitpick: the release date for 0.7 still says August 20, 2004 — maybe it makes more sense to give the release date of the current version?

Should be set now, phloo.

Turns out to make them both compatible required a one-line change. The old ones used

urn:mozilla:extension:root

and the new one uses

urn:mozilla:item:root

That’s all they needed.

Excellent news, Eric. Hopefully you will be able to get listzilla to work with 1.06+
Btw you should update the URL set as Homepage link in the about box.

regards.

Thanks for the comments, HJ.

I forgot to update the release dates, so now it’s taken care of. Good eye, good eye.

Wow, that thing sure packs a punch, huh? I’ll take a look through it and see how he makes the calls.

I’d recommend Local Install for anyone missing Listzilla / Ext2Abc functionality, it’ll replace both of them and then some. Nice work.

You may want to look at Mr. Tech’s Local Install (http://www.mrtech.com/extensions/) for your problems with Listzilla and ext2abc, both functionalities are included in the 1 large extension. It would be nice to also have them as individual extensions. Plus I like the way Listzilla formats the lists better than Local Install.
