Things might be going a little slower than normal (see the last post), but a new version is ready all the same!
GTDInbox 2.0.7 first and foremost fixes the latest Gmail change that was starting to affect some users (all labels were categorised under ‘Misc’). But, it also continues the work that began in 2.0.6 to make it a little more responsive to problems. It is better at informing you when updates are ready, it can notify you if it detects any common internal problems with Gmail (e.g. failing previews, label renaming not working) and advise you how to fix them, and I fixed several bugs with label rules (e.g. if you remove S/Next Action, it now strips the star; and if you turn an Action into Next Action it will work in all cases, and a few other bugs that were blighting it). I haven’t yet fully cracked the FF3b/RTM (acronyms ahoy!) issue, but now only preview/auto-label is affected - i.e. you can now continue to modify labels using the Inbox Popup (right click in the inbox).
You can install it straight into Firefox over at GTDInbox.com
As ever, please head over to the forum to discuss any issues or ideas!
Update
I meant to say a huge thanks to Sebastian Stadil. I wasn’t actually able to experience the bug that was ruining Labels for lots of people, but Sebastian patiently went through the diagnosing process on my behalf, and essentially is the only reason GTDInbox got fixed so fast, so thank you Sebastian!

Hey, could you put the link to the xpi in these posts? That way people in an online rss reader can just drag the link to a tab, and no need to click through.
Great work!

Andy,
I was going to question why this was not on the front page but it seems you were faster then me (or I had an old page version in cache).
Will the future versions update automagically in FF2?
Thanks!
Patrick

I believe 2.0.7 is conflicting with RTM. RTM keeps asking me to login. I click on Refresh and my list of tasks re-appears, but it doesn’t stay. When I disable 2.0.7, RTM works fine and dandy.

I upgraded to 2.07 - thanks for the new version!!
At the same time, it seems there is something wrong between GTD 2.0.7 and Remember the Milk addon - the latter is always logging out after a certain period of time. It was not like this in GTD 2.0.6 and I post a a short comment about it in the Forum.

Keep up the good work. The system continues to improve and just when I think that you may have added too much functionality, I understand the simplicity you are after. I enjoy the tool and find it incorporates very nicely with my personal GTD methods.

GTDInbox is one of my favorite addons.
Since this morning my “contacts” are gone (FFox 2.0.0.14) and “new version).
If I switch to “old version” contacts are back again, alas GTDInbox becomes non-functional!
Using IE. contacts are back but . . no GTDInbox.
I read GMail discussions and this is not mentioned.
