Hi Eric,

Glad you are interested.  Long story short, I feel like I
should pass this on because there is a lot of community
interest, and I no longer have the time to give to it that
it deserves.

There are probably 6-8 new language translations which
people have created on babelzilla that have not yet been
integrated.

There are also tons of bugs filed which have received no
attention:
http://bugzilla.mozdev.org/buglist.cgi?product=fasterfox.

In general, the way the prefetching feature works right now
leaves something to be desired.  It could be much smarter
and more targeted.  The event timing could also be better
(e.g. the robots.txt fetching should be asynch).

It seems like there is much more that could be done with
this extension, and I just wanted to put out the offer to
see if someone was interested in picking up the torch.

Please let me know if there is anything more specific I can
answer.

Thanks,
Tony

ps. Not to mention the AdSense on the site was making about
$500/month.  I recently removed the AdSense from the site
due to a conflict of interest with my new employer.
