[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#872936: xul-ext-perspectives: Perspectives upstream project seems to be no more and upstream website is no more.

[shirish शिरीष]

Package: xul-ext-perspectives
Version: 4.6.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

It seems the project website is awol according to
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/perspectives/reviews/904725/
. Also saw for self that the website is nowhere to be found.

[$] whois http://perspectives-project.org/
No whois server is known for this kind of object.

Also saw this perspectives-project.wordpress.com doesn’t exist .

Another thing is that all add-ons are being marked legacy in firefox
55.0 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-add-technology-modernizing?

I guess we should be kicking this one <unlikely>unless some people in
Debian decide to support the project themselves.</unlikely>
