Ubufox was signed a few weeks ago and will be shipped with the Firefox 40 update tomorrow. However, it's only been through preliminary review, and future Firefox versions disable side-loaded addons that haven't had a full review. I'm not sure about the status of the other addons (cc'ing dbarth). Regards - Chris
