Port to PaleMoon? #15

I've had enough drama. Palemoon has grown and developed, and I frankly find its design superior. So I'm switching.

AYW does not work with Palemoon because Palemoon doesn't support Australis (so says the project lead). So, if we removed the Australis mods, that might be something. Another idea is to provide multiple editions for multiple purposes. For example, we could have one that allows only local pages access, and another that allows both websites and local pages access.

I'm sorry, but I'm a bit tied up again on other projects atm, but FYI, Mozilla recently appointed someone to handle the long-standing reviews, and he sent me what I think was a thoughtful letter asking whether I still wanted it to be reviewed. I disagreed with his points, but he had at least some clearly done some reading up on the add-on. Anyways, I'm awaiting his reply to my counter-points and can let you know if anything comes of it.

I tried to get an older version running, but it didn't find anything in
Pale Moon to access. A Pale Moon port as such would require the XUL/XPCOM
approach.

I also tried my hand at making a browser. Got about 600 lines of code in,
and a good chunk of the elements, before I got to the more complicated
stuff and stalled. I made it in FreeBASIC if that interests you.

Have we discussed nw.js before (formerly node-webkit)? See https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/wiki/Mini-browser-in-iframe for making your own browser... And one gets to work in JavaScript...
