request ?0.9

0.9 is released.  Cleared 0.9 flag, set 1.0 flag instead.

Comment 3

[José Jeria]

How about redirecting to the correct url?

Comment 4

[David Tenser [:djst]]

update.mozilla.org isn't ready yet, which is why ben didn't update the links.

pch won't be around for an unknown period of time.  This is a good thing, I'll
try to land this some time this week. (Busy with work)

Shouldn't the bookmark links specify the GUID as the "application" rather than
the generic "firefox" like the "Get More Themes" and "Get More Extensions" links do?

Attachment: Now using GUID for Firefox instead of the name.

Not going to obsolete the old one, since I'll leave it up to the person who
checks it in to decide which to use. But either way, here's the patch using
GUID instead.

Thanks.

Now using GUID for Firefox instead of the name.

New patch (not necessarily "better") to use the GUID of Firefox in the bookmark
instead of the name. Both will work. Take your pick when checking in.
