Message-ID: <14582075.post@talk.nabble.com> I've been using sage for a few years now, almost daily. I really like the simplicity and the 'just works' approach. It's a pity though that development seems to have come to a full halt long ago. Basic fixes that the community provided (i.e. compatibility with bookmark synchronizers) were never released. Compatibility with the upcoming firefox 3 doesn't seem to be being worked on. Can't find any recent dev. activity on any open bug. I really hope someone can prove me wrong here. Otherwise, would anyone care to post a recommendation for an alternative to sage, something along the same lines: simple, non-obstrusive, etc. Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Is-sage-still-alive--tp14582075p14582075.html Sent from the MozDev - sage mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

A couple minutes of using Brief gives me the impression that it's similar to Sage and very nice. -- From court at tamu.edu Thu Jan 3 07:51:10 2008 From: court at tamu.edu (Court Sansom) Date: Thu, 03 Jan 2008 09:51:10 -0600 Subject: [Sage] Is sage still alive?

If one has 200 live bookmarks, Firefox spends 10 minutes after starting downloading them all. Ugh. (Ok, so having 200 live bookmarks is insane, but still.) -- From ari.reads at gmail.com Thu Jan 3 09:34:11 2008 From: ari.reads at gmail.com (Ari El) Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 09:34:11 -0800 (PST) Subject: [Sage] Is sage still alive?

I also was wary of the "live bookmarks". Anyways I converted all to live bookmarks. I have a lot (about a 100 perhaps) of rss subscriptions, but I don't notice that firefox takes a lot to start though, looks the same as before. The problem I found is that the "doesn't play well with bookmark synchronizers" is there Brief too. After downloading bookmarks, the next time firefox is restarted, brief will ask for the folder, like sage before the patch. Hopefully they will fix it, the developer seems to be very responsive. we'll see i guess Matt Nordhoff-2 wrote: > > Court Sansom wrote: >> I switched from Sage to Brief a few weeks back and I've been very happy >> so far.

I am the developer of Habari Xenu. Sadly, because of lack of time, I have given up on further developing that extension. Unlike Sage, HX never got a community built around it so it was a one-man effort. I personally use Google reader these days. I used to love Sage. I hope it does not go extinct. S.
