Re: PLASTIC addon for firefox

   Hi all,

   Anita suggested at the Trieste interop meeting that I should repost this while the mailing lists are less active ;o)

   If you want to access the mozilla addon website, you probably need to be registered there. If so, please take a short moment to vote for the extension if you think it's worth it. That way, the extension can get public promotion and be available to anyone.
