Thanks for the response.
Ok, that makes sense as to why things aren't working.

Yes, that link you sent is how I even found this message list, but to be
honest... that link really doesn't have anything useful (as far as a list of
functions, and their current status).

It really would be good to create a project, and list all the functions, so
that people can see the status, and possibly even other developers can jump
in and help.

But it's hard to do much of anything, if no one really knows much of
anything about the project.

I've searched everywhere, checked "greasespot", checked Google, checked
thousands of different forums, and posts, and even Mashable.  No on seems to
know anything about it, and no one seems to even have any clue about the
project, it's status, or what commands/functions are even implemented yet.

I (and millions of others) would really love to see Greasemonkey support
added to Chromium.

There are about 2+ Million users that are using Greasemonkey scrips (for
Firefox) that hate Firefox, and have been blowing up the message boards
complaining and asking if there was a way to run their greasemonkey scripts
in Chrome (or Chromium).

I've spent the past 2-3 weeks searching, and everywhere I look, it seems to
be the same question.  Nobody seems to know much about it, and that same ONE
link shows up in all the posts.

It doesn't seem to answer any questions, and all it does is direct people to
this Dev list.

Could we maybe get a Greasemonkey WIKI page?  With some detailed
instructions, and also a status update on all the functions.  This would at
least help others (that want to get involved), and help move this project
forward.

It seems to be stuck in "park" for the past 9+ months, and doesn't seem like
anyone is doing much of anything and I've seen a lot of posts of people
offering to help with the project, but there doesn't seem to be any
information available, as to where/who/how, or what is even going on.

Could we at least post a status page, to show a list of ALL the Greasemonkey
functions, and see which functions are "not yet implemented" and "partially
implemented" and "ready for testing".  Also can we see a name of the contact
person for each function.

This way people can step forward and at least help with the project.  I
think it might move much quicker, if this would have a bit of organization
to  it, and others could get involved and help.

>From all the posts that I've been reading, it seems that nothing has been
done for 9+ months now, and other than the flurry of posts in December, all
the recents posts are just complaining that "it doesn't work" and nobody
seems to have any answers, any explanation, or even any clue as to what the
status of this is, or how others can even get involved to help.

Could we at least get a WIKI page setup, with some contact info, and a
status page, just so users and developers can get an idea of what is going
on with the Greasemonkey project, and how they can get involved to help?

It doesn't seem to be going anywhere (as far as I can tell), and from all
the posts, everyone has the same complaints, that the whole project is "dead
in the water" and nothing is getting done or moving forward.

I would love to try and get a few developers to help, if we could at least
get an idea as to what is going on, and maybe organize this project a little
bit better so that others can get involved (and help this move forward).
