| Convert in-content XUL pages to HTML | |||
| Some of Firefox's in-content pages like about:newtab, about:memory, etc. use XUL. If we used HTML instead, it'd be easier for people to hack on them, they'd benefit from performance/bugfix improvements to the web, and so on. It would be nice to convert some of these pages away from XUL. | |||
| Good knowledge of HTML, CSS and JS. Knowledge of XUL and/or possibly the new shadow DOM specs will likely come in handy. | |||

| Firefox front-end contribution add-on | |||
| Build an add-on that works on Nightly and lets people write patches against the files in their Nightly, and easily put those up in bugzilla (in a format that can be grokked by hg qimport). Note that this should use (or rewrite/emscripten-recompile) the python preprocessor into JS and automatically download the required source files for files which are preprocessed. | |||
| Good knowledge of web tech like HTML, CSS, JS. Some knowledge of Firefox internals (like having written a XUL-based add-on before). | |||
