> they just haven't cut a new release in a while

Which seems to mean that you can't run the stable version of pentadactyl on Firefox 27 (the current release) [1]. I do understand that it is not equal to being inactive, but at least for me it was one of the reasons why I returned back to vimperator (which has a stable version that works for Firefox 27).

Run a nightly? But yeah, it seems to always take a little while for the Pentadactyl folks to release a stable version.


That sure is understating it. The last release states it's compatible with Firefox 4.0 - 14. Firefox 15 came out August 28, 2012.


Yeah, but there are nightly pentadactyl versions which work perfectly well with the latest stable firefox.


You may be right. I think I must have been running a nightly all this time! But anyway, it works.
