Description

https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/mozilla-get-url hasn't been updated to cater for HTTP access, while your module works just fine.

Since Mozilla have discontinued fully functioning FTP access, this module is one of the few viable alternatives to discovering firefox releases. To help others overcome this issue, I suggest un-deprecating this module if only to improve its visibility.

Research direction

The issue proposes un-deprecating node-firefox-get because mozilla-get-url no longer supports HTTP, but it names no files, tests, or entry points. First inspect the repository's current deprecation messaging and project history; the work is done only when the module's status and rationale are updated consistently.
