Hi everybody

That is a very confusing license: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunde ... se/1.0.6.5 It appears the dev is claiming copyright for the source code. Best suggestion would be no unless you plan to use it only yourself and not distribute it.

Re: Fork an extension
That seems to be the only contact point he has listed. If you haven't, you might wait a week. He might not check that address very often.
Other then that, are likely out of luck. You might leave an note in the review section of the extension. Give it five stars (assuming it was worth five stars before it broke) and say something like "Useful extension, however I am having problems. See this (url to this post)." However, it isn't likely he is still watching that page.
At the moment. I would hold tight and see if anyone else has any suggestions. If nothing else, you could write a new one from scratch.
