Mike Shaver Extends Firefox
On 3 November 2005, Mozilla announced the Extend Firefox contest to encourage developers to create or upgrade thier extensions for v1.5 of Firefox. If you’re a developer, the deadline for submission is 6 January 2005. Chris talked with Mike Shaver from Mozilla about the Extend Firefox contest and many of the cool new features in Firefox 1.5 which warrant an upgrade as soon as all your favorite extensions catch up. If you’re not a developer, this means the next several months should result in a ton of new features for Firefox so keep your eyes out for enhanced Firefox features.
