  27 <LI> <a href="http://downloads.mozdev.org/locallink/locallink-0.4.xpi">locallink-0.4.xpi</a>:
  28 Version 0.4 adds compatibility with Firefox 3.0, 3.5 and 3.6. This is also compatible with Firefox 2.0.
  29 <br>Notes: No Thunderbird version included; localisation scheme changed away from the universal scheme to the more robust standard scheme
  30 (en-US, en-GB and de-DE provided; I'd be happy to integrate more).

  32 <LI> <a href="http://downloads.mozdev.org/locallink/locallink-0.3.xpi">locallink-0.3.xpi</a>:
  33 Version 0.3 adds compatibility with Firefox 1.5 and Thunderbird 1.5. This is compatible with Firefox 2.0. Please redownload (here or from addons) or up the maxVersion yourself.

  35 <LI> <a href="http://downloads.mozdev.org/locallink/locallink-0.2.xpi">locallink-0.2.xpi</a>:
  36 Version 0.2 adds submenus for opening in new tab/new window/etc.
  37 Works with Firefox (tested with 1.0PR, should work with 0.8+ through 1.0) and Thunderbird (tested with 0.8, should work with 0.7 through 0.8+).
  38 <BR>
  39 When updating from 0.1, I suggest you remove the old extension first.

  41 <LI> <a href="http://downloads.mozdev.org/locallink/locallink-0.1.xpi">locallink-0.1.xpi</a>:
  42 Version 0.1 is bare bones. No preferences, no fancy dialogues.
  43 Works only with Firefox (tested with 1.0PR, should work with 0.8+ through 1.0).

  46 <h5> Protocol handlers</h5>
  47 <P>
  48 If you want to pass links from Thunderbird to an external browser using LocalLink, handlers for the appropriate protocols have to be set up. For local links the protocol is <code>file</code>.
  49 You set up the handlers in the same way in which you make Thunderbird open links in Firefox.
  50 </P>
  51 <h5>Localisation</h5>
  52 <P>
  53 From version 0.2 on, LocalLink uses &quot;universal localisation&quot;:
  54 it takes all labels from the main application, so that they are localized whenever you have a language pack for the latter.
  55 </P>
