I don't know anything about firefox plugin development, but I think that enough of us use it that developing a firefox-"native" environment would be very worth-while. I spent quite a bit of time at the end of last week working on the javascript in the notebook (specifically, making spkgs and upgrading the javascript packages, while simplifying js.py to use jquery in a few places), which impacted js.py, notebook.py, twist.py, and interact.py. Is there anyone working on those files currently?
