You have to register on AMO, if you want to download it at the moment. I nominated it for the public area one week ago.
Have you ever tried to contact Gomita? It is impossible to contribute the fixes back to the author. He did not answer my e-mails. He did not react on my comments in his guestbook. And I am not the only one having this problem.

Yes, several times.

I have actually managed to do that (I am responsible for the SeaMonkey port). But it's true getting his attention is almost impossible. What I have done in the past is to file a bug in the scrapbook bugzilla with an attached patch in unified diff format. Although I see he doesn't seem to have been checking that either.

Ditto.

This is a list of incomplete localizations:
Gomita uses the Babelzilla Web Translation System to do his translations. What you could do is to open a new project there (I assume that you have a different GUID) and then go to the Scrapbook thread and invite the existing translators to add themselves to your project as well. This might also get gomita to notice you

That's my fault. You still need to uninstall ScrapBook before installing ScrapBook+. The entry in the list above means something different. I updated the change log in my previous post.
If you want to download many web sites, ScrapBook+ stores the URLs of this sites in a list. When the download of a web site starts, the list is scrolled to the entry of this website automatically. I don't like this behaviour as it makes it necessary to pause the download in order to unselect undesired web sites.
NEW Capture Multiple URLs - number of selected and available links is displayed NEW Capture Multiple URLs - changing the destination folder causes an update of the selection
UPDATE -- the following localizations have been updated Arabic (ar) and Spanish (es-ES)
FIXED Capture Multiple URLs - links in the clipboard are not handled properly FIXED Capture Multiple URLs - detection of tabs is not working
