Steward
Ally Naaktgeboren
Identify Community
Q: Can you identify all of the contributors on your team (both paid-staff and volunteer-staff)?
A: Yes. Communication exists through #sync & the services-dev@mozilla.com mailing list.
Define Contribution Opportunities
Q: Can you point someone interested in contributing to your project to a list of available contribution opportunities?
A: They talk to the steward, usually in #sync, who pairs them with bugs based on their interests, time expectations, abilities, and the team's needs. The needs of services vary highly.
Map Contribution Paths
Q: Are there clearly understood steps someone can follow to go from knowing nothing about your project to successfully contributing?
A: The full set of steps depend on what you want to work on. Firefox desktop UI is very different from Notifications for example. In general, talk to the steward first, get a bugzilla account, and the steward will mentor you through finding a starting bug and a mentor for it.
Establish Goals and Metrics
