Yosh, Ian and I were joined by Erwan today as we finished up Taboo for entry into Extend Firefox 3. It was a long day, but it ended with everything coming together, unlike the last contest where I submitted a few seconds too late (I submitted the first form on time, but the second form was too late last time).
We've got to do some more polish to make it so the the extension works in Firefox 2, Flock 1.2, as well as the new Firefox 3 (and Flock 2 Beta). Firefox 3 improvements include:
- XUL panel element for UI consistent with star UI in FF3
- Zip Writer component allows for for exporting ZIP backup (which can be imported)
- Native JSON component for clearing sensitive data on export
- Uses nsISessionStore.get/setTabState (proposed and added to FF3 for this extension to use - bug #393716)
