Misc
- Blogging about Firebug
- Sebastian will talk to Sören
- Contributions is not only coding, we need translators and others, too
- We have a lot prepared for the future
- We are working on a strategy how to supplement built-in tools
- Next version will be 2.0
- Strategy to overwrite default dev-tools behavior
- Florent: create an issue for this
- Let's have one pref to switch back to default dev-tools settings:
extensions.firebug.defaultDevToolsSettings
- We don't know how or whether to expose the pref to the UI. But it should be visible otherwise users could disable the Firebug extension instead. The option could be in the Shortcuts dialog. The dialog could even offer a second set of shortcuts without collisions.
