I must have Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox. When will 6 support it?

more options

I'm not installing Firefox 6, because it says it is not compatible with Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin.

1: When will you be compatible with it?

2: Why does http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html give me 3.6.20, not 5.X?

1. It is up to the developer of the plugin to keep it compatible with Firefox.

2. Firefox 5.0 isn't supported any longer, only Firefox 3.6.20 and Firefox 6.0.

What's wrong with Firefox 5.0?

more options

Firefox 5.0 / 5.0.1 is missing a half a dozen security fixes that are in 3.6.20 and 6.0. Firefox 6.0 is considered a security update for Firefox 5.0, which was a security update for Firefox 4.0.

Thank you. Where would I go to find out why / how Firefox 6 broke the GWT Developer Plugin?

Thansk!
