After the Deadline Firefox Add-on - Change log

» SVN repository readme

1.51 - 20120202

Updated Firefox 10 compatibility

1.5 - 20100809

Removed first-run and what's new screens
Updated for Firefox 4 compatibility.

1.4 - 20100728

auto-proofread is now off by default.
Ignored sites/ignored phrases now scrolls if there is too much information.
Disabled AtD on draft.blogger.com WYSIWYG editor.
AtD widget now inherits z-order property. It should display on some pages where it didn't show before.
Updated translations using strings from http://translator.wordpress.com/projects/atd/atd-firefox. Thanks volunteers!
AtD now honors the extensions.afterthedeadline.proofreadServer key. You can set this in about:config to the URL of a server that speaks the AtD protocol. Set this key if you run an AtD server or to make this extension speak to another technology. This key should contain a URL (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:1049). See: http://wp.me/pCBVi-bR
AtD now attaches to any site (whether that site has AtD or not). This has worked fine with our Chrome extension, so we're bringing this here.
