Hi folks,
Following the unscrupuled tactic of Mozilla to require extensions to be signed by their review team, regardless if you wish to use addons.mozilla.org as a distribution platform or not, I will remove Pale Moon Commander from addons.mozilla.org (AMO) on the day this signing will happen, May 28th 2015.
After this removal from AMO, the only way to use Pale Moon Commander will be by installing it from the Pale Moon website, the Pale Moon addons site, or any software portals that may mirror the extension.
Come Firefox 41, this will also therefore mean that Pale Moon Commander will no longer be usable on Mozilla Firefox, unless there is a rebuild of the browser that has this draconic "sole arbiter" nonsense disabled.
Apologies to all Firefox users impacted by this, but I will have no part of this undocumented platform-side signing BS to make every volunteer and supportive extension developer solely dependent on what a Mozilla reviewer thinks of their extension.
