I ended up on getsatisfaction.com by seeking support for Twitter and thought that this would be a great program for Mozilla to adopt and use but not surprising to me at all is the fact that Mozilla is already on top of it.
I was surprised to see that there are official Mozilla reps and employees here which I find to be very cool that ya'll (yes ya'll) are taking the time to hang out and help people directly.
I have a few questions that anyone is welcomed to answer.
Is this a program that you'd like to see more end users of Mozilla's products use as a help and support solution or is it just a cool side gig? I guess what I'd really like to know is would you like to see this service used as a replacement for current (and official) help and support solutions or in addition to them and why?
It wouldn't be too hard to get the word out that there's a new and/or additional help and support service for Mozilla's products.
I'd like to help out as much as I can but I'm obviously not an official Mozilla rep or employee. Would it be ok to use the "Add yourself as an employee of Mozilla" form and enter in that I'm a volunteer? If so, does that info need to be verified by one of you? If so, who do I send the bribe assets to?
(insert bribe requests here---->______)
Thanks

Hello Everyone! The idea of this thread is to allow people to post ideas for add-ons or extensions for Thunderbird AND to allow people to vote on these ideas.
This way Mozilla and any developer/s working here could quickly see which ideas are wanted the most and include them in their work or create something completely new to address the want.
Let's just please follow these simple rules so it's all easy to track...
1. To post an idea, use the "reply" feature, NOT the "add a comment" feature
2. To vote for an idea, use the "add a comment" feature right below the idea you want to vote for, NOT the "reply" feature
Hope this helps build momentum for TB ideas! Thanks!
Doesn't play well with google apps. It's taking the contacts from my regular gmail account and using my google apps account to send emails. Can't access google app contacts at all.
I've been thinking about some of the similarities between Ubiquity and Launchy, and I think each project could benefit from the other. A quick overview: Both projects are based on the "type what you want to do" idea, both include capability for creating custom commands and command types.
Since this is the Mozilla section, the Ubiquity suggestion first. The command interpreter used in Launchy is extremely clever, in that it "learns", can recognise commands from any part of the name, and has an effective "Do What I Mean" system. This system can at the least provide inspiration for the one to be used in the final versions of ubiquity.
Entirely separately, a plugin for launchy to enable integration with ubiquity would be a way to make things easier, and would help to avoid hotkey conflicts such as one already mentioned here.
Why doesn't my email generated by this plug in doesn't look the same?
When I select an image and text, I don't see the image and text in the right way like in the promo video? And the receiving person doesn't see the image either just some HTML-like tags!
I'm trying to make a ubiquity command that searches within a domain. The site already has a built-in search function which I'd prefer if I could use that, but I can probably work with it doing a google search and adding Site:sitename.com to the end. But I have no clue how to do either of these. Any feedback would be appreciated, I'm still trying to learn how to program these commands.
I discovered that Ubiquity doesn't work when Kiobo Toolbar is enabled. I had to go through my extensions one by one to find the culprit. Fortunately, I didn't get to play with Kiobo so I don't know what I'm missing. Being a die-hard Quicksilver user I know how useful Ubiquity will be.
The add-on from PMOG should look like wood (PMOG.com is all steampunk themed), but is instead the default grey of Windows (see screenshot below) and doesn't contain the ability to sign in. I guess the two add-ons are conflicting with each other...
the information loaded in the mashups should remain loaded when the ubiquity window is closes, so that when the user types control+space there is no need to load from the web again.
ExtJS is great JavaScript library, which adds almost window management API for Webbrowser.
Including it into Ubiquity would add possibility to take browsing and managing of dynamic content into another level of user experience!
When Hit-a-Hint add-on is activated, Ubiquity can not post tweets to twitter or post events to Google Calendar, hitting "Enter" doesn't give any response.
I had a problem writing a javascript command for Ubiquity. The command is "boinc" and it is supposed to bring up an image of my BOINC stats in the preview before the command is executed. However, once I subscribe to my own command, Ubiquity appears to have forgotten all commands, period. Nothing but a complete uninstall and reinstall helps.
