Release notes:
- The extension's ID [1] has been changed.
The old ID was[email protected]
,
the new one is[email protected]
.
Some details:- The main reason is that the old ID has been disabled by Mozilla
for Firefox 38+ because of a bug [2] and because the "old" add-on
was unmaintained. - What does this mean?
- With the new ID it's again possible to use RequestPolicy 0.5.*
on Firefox 38 or later. - In addition to that, the changed ID allowed us to upload the
add-on to Mozilla's Add-Ons website (aka AMO). You can find it
at [3]. However, if you're reading this, the add-on might still
be "unreviewed" [4] and therefore not to be found via search.
- With the new ID it's again possible to use RequestPolicy 0.5.*
- The main reason is that the old ID has been disabled by Mozilla
- A warning is shown if the extension with the old extension ID is
installed and enabled. It's not possible to have both add-ons
enabled in the same browser at the same time.
