Modules

Warning: This is not the definitive Module Owners list; it is a concrete example of a proposal for change. The official list is here. In particular, as it's just a demo, this list is incomplete, and has only one sample non-code module.

This page links to pages listing the Module Owners and their Peers for all Mozilla modules (both code and other).

• Toolkit
• Core
• Firefox
• Thunderbird
• Calendar
• SeaMonkey
• Bugzilla
• Other (code modules which aren't in any of the above categories)
• Activities (non-code)

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.

Questions about module ownership should be directed to the owner or peers of the Module Ownership module.
