[doap-interest] DOAP Firefox extension

Coming hot on the heels of the announcement of the DOAP bookmarklet is 
the DOAP Firefox extension. Designed to let you know when a page has 
information about it in a DOAP file attached, this extension places a 
small image in the lower right hand corner of your browser. Greyed out 
by default, this icon lights up whenever it finds a DOAP file. You can 
then click the icon to open the page in stork's DOAP-viewer.

My first ever Firefox extension, built with a ton of help from Joel De 
Gan ( http://peoplesdns.org ). Could probably be extended to do a whole 
lot more - a little pop up menu from the icon, for example, allowing you 
to do other fun things like copy the CVS server info or something like 
that. However, I just wanted to get this out there and some feedback on 
it first.

http://crschmidt.livejournal.com/257882.html is my post on DOAP from 
last night - expect another post regarding the DOAP extension, simply 
because I'm proud of it.

Any email on the extension can be sent to the list or to me directly.

Thanks!
