> Do you not need a google account to push to the chrome store?

i don't know. i'm just talking about the simple act of porting an existing chrome js file to work in safari.

it takes 2 minutes to port to firefox and you dont need to dowlonad gigs of proprietary junk on your machine and create an account.

Firefox requires you to create a developer account. And, obviously, install firefox.

that's for publishing. i'm just talking about the simple act of porting an extension and running it locally.

you cannot do that at all in safari without xcode and an account to sign,
