Derek,
I will be interested to hear how you get on with this, I have a couple of extensions that don’t work with release 2, but not too bothered about losing them.
However, it would still be nice to get them working.

Hi
I have found that most all of my favorite 60 extensions are working perfectly in V2… In any case, are you aware of FEBE: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2109/ - and CLEO: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2942/ - these enable backup of one, many, or all extensions - and indeed if you want you can backup your entire Firefox Profile. Therefore if you upgrade and run into problems, you can downgrade, and restore your extensions, or entire profile in a couple of mouse clicks! Now that’s safe and cool!
Cheers, Ian

I’m probably going to upgrade after the current chores are done. I’ll let you know if I have any problems.

No, I didn’t know about FEBE or CLEO. They look like excellent solutions. Have you tried both of them? If so, which one worked best for you?

I too put off upgrading to Ff 2.0 for fear of “breaking” extensions. But I finally took the plunge, just so I could try Zotero, and I have to say it was the easiest Ff upgrade ever—maybe it’s because I waited and the extensions had all been updated.
