Hi,

Thanks for the emails everyone sent about this. And thanks for including
me in the CC.

About adblock, as you might guess, gui is important when what's in
question is Desktop Linux :) However, I didn't mean to start a
discussion of "we have this and that extension" or "this epiphany
extension is better than that firefox extension -and vice versa-".

What I meant to say was: it would be nice to get functions that most
popular Firefox extensions provide with new Epiphany extensions, and
distribute these extensions as standard, just like the extensions listed
at http://www.gnome.org/projects/epiphany/extensions

Thanks :)

Sincerely
