= Introduction =
AMO leverages volunteer reviewers/editors to look over pending and nominated add-ons for publication on the site. With the launch of [[Update:Remora|Remora]] and the sandbox, aspects of this role have changed significantly.
 
== What's a reviewer? ==
In version 2 of addons.mozilla.org, the term "reviewer" referred to a person that had access to an approval queue of extensions and themes that were submitted. Reviewers would install the add-on and test it to ensure that it worked properly, and would then either approve the version or deny it.
 
In Remora (version 3), anyone is considered a reviewer. Users can install add-ons as soon as the author submits them. We hope that these users will then return to write a review of their experience with the add-on, whether it be good or bad.
 
== What's an editor? ==
Editors have access to the queue of pending and nominated add-ons, and their main role is to assess the existing reviews and determine whether the add-on should be pushed to the public side based on criteria in the [http://addons.mozilla.org/pages/policy policy].
