I think we should beat all other competitors on this particular issue and find a way to solve this problem without forcing developers to add code to support debuggers. The .displayName becomes a new source of bugs, and a particularly horrible source because errors in .displayName causes the debugger to lie to you. I have been working on this problem and making progress. > 2.

(I guess official mirror and > accepting pull requests will be good start) We have been discussing using git. But to be sure I'm not very interested in contributors offering pull requests. That model has a very large overhead for the core developers (Honza and me) who have to merge. I want to encourage extensions and contributors who work outside the source code itself, like Templarian's image contributions and Sebastian's work on the issues list. > > In any case I really hope metamorphosis of firebug will happen and > will be successful!
