* Hundreds of changes; addon is again aligned with all features of FoxyProxy Standard 7.4.1 except pattern matching. Here is a partial list

* Now works with Firefox Nightly 71.x and Beta 71.x. Minimum Firefox version is now 60.0.
* Logging improvements; log now displays unmatched URLs just like version 6.x and earlier. This makes it obvious which URLs you may want to write patterns for.
* UI Improvements
* Performance improvements for authentication.
* Ensure new proxies are added to the top of the list when created.
* Remove migration code which seems to cause errors for some people; migration from very old versions now gone.
* Do not display pattern shortcuts (match all URLs, don't match localhost & intranet IPs) when editing a proxy setting, just like 6.x and earlier. Showing these created a lot of confusion for some users. Sorry!
* Pattern Cheat Sheet on pattern-related pages.
* Bug fixes when importing legacy foxyproxy.xml settings (FoxyProxy 4.x and earlier).
* Show patterns buttons when adding Direct (no proxy) setting. Fixed some minor UI bugs when using Direct (no proxy).
* Added browser and extension version numbers to export for debugging of exported settings submitted by users. It will be useful also in the future as the fileformat matures and changes, as it has many times over the years.
* Another pattern bugfix. See https://github.com/foxyproxy/firefox-extension/issues/33
* Fix for inability to turn off "Send DNS through SOCKS5 proxy" for SOCKS5 proxies; see https://github.com/foxyproxy/firefox-extension/issues/35
* Bugfix for HTTP Basic Authentication introduced in version 7.0; discussed here: https://github.com/foxyproxy/firefox-extension/issues/30
* Fix minor import bug when importing FoxyProxy settings for paid accounts.

Fix corner-case bug for importing legacy FoxyProxy settings on Fedora systems

Better error handling when importing legacy settings

Please import your old FoxyProxy settings using the Import button!

Firefox 57+ is significantly different than previous Firefox versions. I was forced to re-write 10 years of mature FoxyProxy code from scratch. There are many missing features, and in almost all cases that is due to Firefox 57+ limitations or bugs (for example, custom-colored toolbar icons). The UI also had to change; I could no longer make FoxyProxy look like a native application. It now looks more like a traditional web site.

I understand your frustration. Please refrain from attacking me because there is nothing I can do to change Mozilla's decisions. Thank you for using my labor of love. -- Eric H. Jung, November 2017
