Hello Folks! I was very busy after New Year and do not often opened QtDevNet, but now, QtDevNet team give new beautiful API for my extension. And now I publish new version.
It's no include more changes of features or interface, but I strongly recommend install new version, because now it work right.

And I register on google chrome web store, now You can find extension there.

Thank you QtDevNet team!

Not sure what the supported list of browsers for DevNet is, but I would guess it includes browsers that are not as modern as to support HTML 5 features.

html5 unsupported browsers can always default to flash, only few IE versions I guess. I think most of us are already onto the latest greatest browsers and if someone is not, they should upgrade..

This extension is for Chrome anyway, and Chrome is as up to date as it gets, I guess. :-)

yes for chrome extn it would anyways work with html5, but the object in question is the animated MS flash badge, now I proposed that be redone with html5 instead of flash (and flash be used only for the older browsers)

I have the same experience... :) But when I got a new machine I really missed this extension from my Chrome so I have installed on the first day.

About flash mad scientist badge in extension. I've asked Vass to change it to png. Flash is not fully stable at linux and it sometimes brokes up.
