Seems to work okay in casual use for the past few days (though I've only been using noscript for about 2 weeks so I'm not the best tester).

Confirm, seems to work.

Just a little reminder, for next week: next Tuesday is the big release of Firefox 57, in which only WebExtensions-Addons will run. NoScript is currently no such Addon and thus is incompatible with Firefox 56 and below. But there will be a compatible NoScript release on the exact same date as Firefox 57 is released. So it would be really nice when Firefox 57 and the new compatible NoScript version will get pushed together to Fedora to ensure a seamless update procedure.

I assume this release requires Firefox <= 56, so that users who have it installed only get updated when the new NoScript version is in stable repo?

This update has reached the stable karma threshold and can be pushed to stable now if the maintainer wishes.
