projects
Working on at Mozilla:
Summary:
- Improving W3C policies/process (via the W3C Process Community Group) for more openness, transparency, and choice of standards development
- Prioritizing Web Standards for Firefox (e.g. CSS, DOM)
- Editing a few specs (CSS Scrollbars, CSS 2.2)
- Community standards to support the Open Web (e.g. IndieWeb Community)
- Defending where the open web or standards are threatened
- either directly, by:
- proprietary (or oligopolic) efforts,
- or indirectly, by:
- badly designed standards, e.g.
- standards biased toward large companies
- standards biased against individual users, authors, designers, and developers.
- Silos (e.g. popular "social media")
- badly designed standards, e.g.
- either directly, by:
contribute
- Want to work for Mozilla? https://mozilla.org/jobs
- Contribute to Mozilla: https://mozilla.org/contribute
- By contributing you can meet people and find out more about working with Mozilla
Here's three things you can do to get started:
- get on IRC with Colloquy - see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Irc#Colloquy for details
- create an account on https://wiki.mozilla.org/
- Go to https://wiki.mozilla.org/Special:RequestAccount and fill it out accordingly, you may need to wait for approval
- edit your user page
- e.g. this is Tantek's: https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Tantek
- Once your account is approved, login, and click the red link of your username next to the 👤 icon in top right of the page
- That will show you either an option to Create your user page or directly place you in a textarea to do so! Put your fullname (how you would like to be referred to) and maybe a little about yourself.
- create an account on http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
contributing faq
- Q: Why can't I edit the Main_Page?
- A: The Main_Page is only editable by a subset of users. Tantek doesn't have permission to edit it!
- Q: My User page says: "There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs." - How do I create/edit it?
- A: First make sure you have confirmed your email address. Check your email for a confirmation message from MozillaWiki and then click the link in it. You should see a message like "your email address is now confirmed."
- A2: Or you can't because you're a new user (this is to reduce the creation of spam pages). Get someone you know at Mozilla to create your page for you as a stub, e.g. with {{stub}}.
- A3: Or the MozillaWiki has cached your User page (perhaps from before you confirmed you email). Try loading your user page with a "?" after the URL and see if you get an "Edit" link in the header.
