== Releases ==
 
'''0.3 Release:'''
 
NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL UBIQUITY IN THUNDERBIRD RELEASE. 0.3 IS JUST A NUMBER FOR MY INSTRUCTOR TO SEE SO HE KNOWS WHICH ASSIGNMENT THIS IS FOR!
 
Once again, this release only works for Thunderbird 3.0 or higher. You also need Firefox 3.0 or higher for it to run<br />
in your Firefox environment.
 
You still need the latest Thunderbird. See 0.1 release to find the link to get it.
 
Default key binding for Thunderbird is still ALT+D. Firefox is CTRL+ENTER.
 
IMPORTANT: If Ubiquity downloads with 'Image_' as the prefix of the file name, rename the file and remove it. Otherwise it will NOT work.<br />
 
UNZIP THIS. XPI file is inside. Don't rename the the file to .xpi!

== Project Details ==
 
0.3 Release:<br /><br />
- Ubiquity shows up in both Firefox and Thunderbird!<br />
- Removed all duplicate files!
 
 
 
0.2 Release:<br /><br />
 
- Ubiquity shows up in both Firefox and Thunderbird!<br />
- Didn't finish documentation. Seems like everyone figured out what I did anyways :).<br />
- Made it so that the annotation for Firefox and Thunderbird are separate (just so it runs).<br />
- Just about every command works in the Firefox version. Some console errors show up but don't affect performance. If they do, please let me know so I can fix it!

-Closed the ticket to add METADATA fields for the application the commands are built for. Now commands build for Firefox will appear and work only in Firefox and commands built for Thunderbird will only appear and work in Thunderbird.
 
Also I closed another ticket concerning a bug with the social.js feed. Where doc.getSelection() was throwing an error. The problem was that the Digg command wasn't working which was pretty convenient since Digg can't work in an e-mail situation anyways.
 
Other than that. We're moving forward with making commands work in specific ways for the different applications. And pondering up new ideas for Thunderbird specific commands.
