Sage is by far the best feed reader I have ever used (and I've tested
several). Unfortunately, Sage is not compatible with Firefox 3.6 beta 1
(sub-folders can't be opened or closed).

*Bug*

Make Sage compatible with Firefox 3.6 (sidebar folders don't open & close)
https://www.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22003

Is there some kind developer out there who could please update Sage?

*Resources*

Sage add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/77

Sage homepage: http://www.petea.org/

Source code and nightly builds: http://www.petea.org/develop/

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There has to be a developer who is also a news junky like me...

Does anyone know how to contact "Higmmer"? He created the Sage++[1]
offshoot of the Sage addon, and his contact form at his web site doesn#t
seem to work for non-Japanese UAs.

Here's how to get Sage running in FF 3.6

1) goto this website ( Higgmer's, by the way ):
http://himag.blog26.fc2.com/blog-category-16.html

On this japanese web page, there will be a download link near the top
that says:
sagepp-2_2_0pre1-fx-HG-100118.xpi

2) download this.
3) rename the file to *.xpi from *_xpi.mp3
4) In FF, do 'ctrl-o', and surf to your .xpi file.
5) Install!
6) In FF, goto VIEW>>SIDEBAR, and check Sage++

WooHoo! It lives ... it LIVES!!!

Higgmer saves the day again, like he did when 3.5 came out.

Sorry, forgot this:

step 0) Uninstall old version of Sage.

Brother Higgmer's pages translate pretty well:
