When will there be some Thunderbird support? I’d really like to synchronize newsrc files …

Is the configuration interface a bad joke? It is non-intuitive, offers almost no configuration options (are we all noobs?) and is only there because some people thought something new and fancy is needed.

Please, please, take us users serious! Offer maybe two interfaces, one for normal and one for advanced users. And drop the failed attempt to introduce some shiny new UI that doesn’t fulfill its purpose at all!

Hi,
I already installed the Test Pilot Add-on and i’m willing to become a test pilot and wish to contribute something to this web browser – firefox.

I guess that it is a given that a lot of us use Tab Mix Plus. I also have Fox Tab installed but I’m uninstalling it. I just don’t need it. I usually know where the tabs that I open are even if I have 22 tabs open, if not, I rely on tooltips, but you might want to keep Fox Tab in mind considering its popularity.

Hi,
Seems like there’s some confusion — sorry if we didn’t make this clear.

If you have an add-on, like Tab Mix Plus, that changes tab behavior, that’s fine! We hope you’ll still participate in the Test Pilot study, with whatever extensions you naturally use. Part of the experiment is to see how such add-ons affect the tab usage data.

You do not need to do anything special in order to let us know that you are using Tab Mix Plus or any similar add-on. Test Pilot can detect this automatically. (It uploads a one-way hash of the extension ID, so if we’re looking for a known add-on, we can identify data that comes from user with that add-on. But other than that, we can’t see the names of the add-ons you have installed.)

If you want to help us analyze the data, you can help by giving us a couple of names of add-ons that change tab behavior, so that we have an idea of add-ons we should be looking for in the data. You can do it in this comment thread, or on the discussion forum. It’s not connected to the data collection in any way.

“It would be great if you can provide the name of your tab-related add-on”

I hope that this isn’t a dumb question but where do you want us to provide that info? Here?

If it isn’t too late, perhaps a question stating “(if any) What tab related add-ons do you have installed?” added to the survey before starting it would help you all to isolate and separate user’s data with tab related add-ons installed from others.

Hi pilots,
There is no need to uninstall your tab-related addons for this test. It would be great if you can provide the name of your tab-related add-on so we can see if there is a pattern on behavior changes for particular add-on.

Thanks!

Why doesn’t a “Check for Updates” in the Addon Manager list this update from version 1.1?
