  • Documentation
    • The Firefox addons developer guide is now available on MDC. It's undergoing some cleanup and copyediting still, but is a great resource for extension developers.
    • Work is underway on adding a new and easier to navigate menu hierarchy to MDC to make it easier to find documentation when you're not quite sure what you're looking for. An "expert" page will be available as well, with quick links to a wide assortment of subjects.
