Hi, I noticed that the latest available xpi (venkman-0.9.85.xpi) does not contain the same code as checked in the source tree. I tried to build a new version for the 1.1 alpha release, but had to modify the xpi package iso build it from code. What is the status of venkman. Is it maintained ? will there be a version for 1.1 ? Regards, Kees

I did a lot of the work for making 0.9.85 working in Firefox and Mozilla 1.7, but the patch for the changes is sitting in Bugzilla waiting for code review. I, personally, just don't have the time to fight the "Mozilla Platform" on Venkman's behalf these days, so you are probably out of luck for a version that works with Firefox 1.5 (they renamed it from 1.1). Until a few days ago, it would probably work fine (after changing install.rdf to let it install at all), but I suspect it may be seriously broken by today. On the other hand, there are some other people involved, so it may yet get the code reviewed and whatever hacks are needed for FF 1.5 added. As people keep telling me, "if you want it fixed, do it yourself". That sucks, though. :) -- -- James Ross <silver <at> warwickcompsoc.co.uk> ChatZilla Developer

I think I meant code changes checked in so the version of venkman is up to date with the rest of the code. I did change the rdf file and the other changes suggested in this forum and it works with 1.5 daily build. So far so good. Who is the person that does the code review ? Thanks Kees
