Hi,
So the questions are:
- Could I pass from 2.49.1 to 2.57 in one step ?
No. NSS is no longer backwoard compatible. We need to soon put a hard
block in to go thru 2.53.1 to .3 first.
- What is approximately the release date of the 2.57 version ?
At least a year or two away with the current resources.
We either keep up with 2.53 or do 2.57 full time. The later is not an
option.
I'm not sure I understand this. Given the lack of resources wouldn't it
make the most sense to get 2.53.x to some point "good enough" as quickly
as you can, maybe once 2.53.2 drops then let it go and move on to 2.57?
I realize that could leave 2.53 in bad shape, but we had that with 2.49
and it would be really nice to get SM to a more current engine with less
website compatibility issues. The more y'all delay working on newer
versions the more behind SM gets and the more folks move to a new tool.
Not sure why you cling to ABP and 2.49.1 (this one is even more obsolete).
Clinging to ABP for me is because it took me several days to get it
working the way I wanted years ago. I had to find various lists, see
which ones worked better than others. Deal with broken websites (which
often required different lists). lots of research and configurations
work I don't particularly like to do and would rather use my time for
other things. I know I need to move on but don't want to invest the
time right now to do the same with uBlock
Older fr dictionary can be used with 2.53.x and I am working on getting
web ext dictionary support in.
