Sage 1.5.1 Released

Friday, June 28th, 2013

Sage 1.5.1 has been released. This is a maintenance release addressing several high impact bugs.

We’re still working our way through the addons.mozilla.org review queue, so you won’t be seeing an automatic update for at least a week or so.

Sage 1.5 Released

Tuesday, June 25th, 2013

Sage 1.5 has been released, bringing Firefox 22 compatibility as well as several new features and a number of bug fixes.

Due to an extremely long (2+ weeks, yikes!) review queue at addons.mozilla.org, automatic updates won’t be happening for some time. However, you can manually install Sage 1.5 by clicking here and get started now.

Sage 1.5 is only compatible with Firefox 22, so if you haven’t upgraded yet, you’ll need to install the latest Firefox release.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Background feed checking and new content notification
  • New feed parser
  • Turkish locale (thanks, Koray Löker!)
