Yes of course. So that was my way  ... I went to your site: 
http://www.beaufour.dk/blog/ scrolled a little bit down to entry Deer 
Park Alpha 1. Then I clicked to the "Firefox page" link 
(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/)  which tooks me to the 
firefox deer park alpha 1 download page. Then I decided to download the 
linux version and clicked on the download link Deer Park Alpha 1 for 
Linux (English) 
<http://download.mozilla.org/?product=deerpark-alpha1&os=linux&lang=en-US> 
(http://download.mozilla.org/?product=deerpark-alpha1&os=linux&lang=en-US). 
Then I installed in into my /opt directory (with a normal user) and 
after the successful installation I started up deer park alpha and went 
again to your blog: http://www.beaufour.dk/blog/ scrolled again a little 
bit down to the entry Deer Park Alpha 1 and clicked on the extension 
link Linux 
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/deerpark/alpha1/linux-i686/xpi/xforms.xpi). 
Now the problems began. First of all Deer Park Alpha didn't open the 
normal extension install window. I had to download the extension to my 
harddrive first and afterwoods I opened it with deer park alpha one 
while I clicked in menue File - > File open -> choose the extension. The 
the install window appeared and everything went correctly. I installed 
the extension and "rebooted" the Deer Park. Then I surfed to the tax and 
calc form on the mozilla xforms page but I can't see the xforms. Maybe I 
took the wrong links?! Could there be a problem with previous 
installation of firefox/xforms.xpi and "tryingouts" of xforms? Maybe 
there could be problem with the profile of firefox ... they share the 
profile (firefox stable/deer park alpha)?

I'm guessing now ... but I think that's not a problem of the software. I 
think there is a problem between me an the computer/software ;-).
