The current maxversion is "<em:maxVersion>3.0.*</em:maxVersion>". That should
cover all firefox versions upto and including 3.0.

I think its best to wait till Firefox3 is released and the set the correct
maxversion accordingly.

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Updating_extensions_for_Firefox_3

We have the correct maxversion. Indeed, beagle-0.3.3 had the older extension
which was not even supposed to work correctly with Firefox-3. beagle-0.3.6 was
released with a Firefox-3 compatible extension.

Regarding Ubuntu, if they had just changed the maxversion to 3.0b5 to include
Firefox-3, then expect things to break. Extension maxversions should not be
just increased without consulting with upstream if the extension is at all
compatible with the new version."
