{{warning|This is not the definitive Module Owners list; it is a concrete example of a proposal for change. [http://www.mozilla.org/about/owners.html The official list is here]. In particular, as it's just a demo, this list is incomplete, and has no non-code modules.}}
Mozilla operates under a [http://www.mozilla.org/hacking/module-ownership.html module ownership governance system]. A '''module''' is a discrete unit of code or activity. An '''owner''' is the person in charge of a module or sub-module. A '''peer''' is a person whom the owner has appointed to help them. A module may have multiple peers and, very occasionally, multiple owners.


This page lists Module Owners and their Peers for all Mozilla modules (both code and other).
The system is overseen by the owner and peers of the [[Modules/Activities#Module_Ownership_System|Module Ownership module]]. For the modules that make up Firefox, oversight is provided by the [[Modules/Firefox_Technical_Leadership|Firefox Technical Leadership module]]. Owners may add and remove peers from their modules as they wish, without reference to anyone else.  


An Owner is the person in charge of a Module. A Peer is a person whom the Owner has designated to help them. If a Code Module has an Owner, the Owner or a Peer should in general review all code changes that go into that module.
===Creating A New Module===


Questions about module ownership should be directed to the owner or peers of the Module Ownership module.
Ideally, a Module should exist for all significant chunks of work or code in the Mozilla project. Who you talk to about this depends on the area of the project concerned.


{{Module
For many areas, the ability to create, alter ownership of and destroy sub-modules has been delegated to the owner of the module whose broad scope covers that area. This is true for Firefox, Thunderbird, and all of the other areas listed below except for [[Modules/Core|Core]], [[Modules/Activities|Activities]] and [[Modules/Other|Other]]. The controlling module is the first one listed on the page. Please contact that person about getting new modules created.
|name=      Accessibility
|description=Support for platform accessibility APIs. Accessibility APIs are used by 3rd party software like screen readers, screen magnifiers, and voice dictation software, which need information about document content and UI controls, as well as important events like changes of focus.

{{Activities_Module
For the modules that make up Firefox, ultimate oversight is provided by the [[Modules/Firefox_Technical_Leadership|Firefox Technical Leadership module]]. Therefore, please post your inquiry in the mozilla.governance newsgroup, cc'ing the owner and peers of the [[Modules/Firefox_Technical_Leadership|Firefox Technical Leadership module]] at tlmc [at] mozilla [dot] com. If there is something sensitive about your inquiry that you aren't comfortable writing in the newsgroup, or in case of uncertainty, please send it to tlmc [at] mozilla [dot] com.
|name=Incubator Repositories
|description=Responsible for implementing the Incubator Repository Policy including topics such as:
* Evaluating requests for new incubator repositories
* Determining if an incubatory repository may live longer than six months
* Other issues that come up in the operation of incubator repositories

{{Module
For all other modules (e.g., [[Modules/Activities|Activities]] and the non-Firefox modules in the [[Modules/Other|Other]] category), please post your inquiry in the mozilla.governance newsgroup, cc'ing the owner and peers of the [[Modules/Activities#Module_Ownership_System|Module Ownership module]] at module-ownership [at] mozilla [dot] org. If there is something sensitive about your inquiry that you aren't comfortable writing in the newsgroup, or in case of uncertainty, please send it to module-ownership [at] mozilla [dot] org.
