Hi Guys!

I've just downloaded the current tinderbox build of SuiteRunner and my
xSidebar extension installs out of the box without any changes. Now that
SuiteRunner has the toolkit Extension/Addon's manager all you Firefox
and Thunderbird extension writers should start thinking of porting your
extensions to SeaMonkey/XULRunner.

As much as I love bringing suiterunner forward, I think it probably would be better for most people to wait until official trunk is switched over to it and real nightlies instead of experimental tinderbox builds are created from it. That code is still not very usable and is expected to break in strange way, additionally the migration to toolkit isn't yet complete, and some important pieces of UI (e.g. tabbrowser) are not yet what we want to have in any offical even nightly builds - so if people migrate their extensions to integrate with e.g. the Firefox tabbrowser widget we have in there, they'll probably break when we turn back to our own tabbrowser again. Don't take anything you see in there for granted yet, there's a reason why this is no default configuration yet...

That said, of course the configuration currently internally codenamed "suiterunner" (a.k.a. "toolkit-based SeaMonkey", it's NO real XULRunner app yet) is what will build the future of the suite. And yes, it still has many rough edges, and we would be glad about any help we can get in making it actually work...
