Odvarko (lead developer of Firebug) and me.

So is it really like so, that users using beta/dev channel versions of
an extension never get the final version?
I don't know
Sounds a bit stupid to me, because if I decide to also get updates for
beta versions of a software, I also want to get an update to the final
version of it as soon as it's out.
