[cap-talk] Petname tool for Firefox 3.x?

cap-talk,

I've come to depend on the Petname Tool.  My family members have even 
been instructed in how to use it and what to do for sites that don't 
have green Petnames.

I just upgraded from Firefox 2.x to 3.01 as 
recommended.  Unfortunately, the Petname tool addon page:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/957?id=957

indicates that the Petname Tool will not function with 3.x versions of Firefox.

Does anybody (e.g. Tyler, HP folks?) know if this situation will soon 
be rectified?  Is there an effective alternative (e.g. perhaps I've 
missed some discussion, etc.)?  I don't require auto-update of my 
Petname database (though that would of course be nice), but I 
certainly hope there is at least an equivalent mechanism available.

Thanks for any response.
