A few things to update us on.
 
Over the break I took that XUL and Firefox Extensions workshop, and learned how to make a basic extension.
 
Man and I have continued to play with extensions, and are trying to learn how to make XPCOM objects.
 
We've both decided to use Anjuta to start. We got our systems setup, built a few dbus examples and continued to read the specification.
 
We've decided to start our project with an extension that will give firefox some better awareness of the network connectivity. The progress has been slower than we expected by a long shot, but we figured if we can get something small working perhaps we can build something more usable off that.
 
We've checked out the DBuzilla project and that looks great. I hope to steal some code from there.
I've contacted Christophe Nowicki, the DBuzilla author, about his project. The project hasn't been update for about 2 months, so I was wondering if he is currently working on that project or if he has left it for now.
