Release v0.3
I was talking to Mark Finkle on IRC the other day, and he told me that the FUEL backport has now a lower priority at Mozilla due to the close release date of Firefox 3. It also happened to be the end of my semester in OSD600, my final product for the class is this, and the code for the work is located on the resources section to the right or if you're reading this post then I have fuelApplication.js and test file

reset not working
Yesterday I was testing the Preferences component of FUEL, and kept on getting an error.
The code was failling on line 230 where it calls the getComplexValue function. After going at it for hours, I find out that it was the reset function that was breaking it:
Commenting out the line with reset passes the preferences test with flying colours ^.^, but I still need to find out why the reset is breaking it, maybe it's fixable :D

// test resetting an existing boolean property
Application.prefs.get(test.boolean).reset();
var val = Application.prefs.getValue(test.boolean, false);
ok(val, "Reset existing string property for expected value");

Little Late -.-;
I was told on the bug page that I am to contact the release drivers team to be set on the right path to put the project into Fx2. It was some concerns with the security of the application. I think I sort of understand why. I tried opening up the tests on firefox 3 and I got an error saying that Application wasn't defined. That's a good thing in that HTML pages can't access FUEL otherwise anyone would be able to bring down Firefox with a simple page (not really accurate). But on Fx2 I was able to open up the tests with no problem [as in access the FUEL components]...
