What is an Add-ons Ambassador?
The Add-ons Ambassador program was organized to help spread the word and educate developers about developing add-ons for Mozilla applications, with a tooling focus on the Mozilla Add-ons SDK. Ambassadors are community volunteers that have stepped up into evangelism leadership roles. They are members of the Mozilla community working in-depth with Mozilla staff to advance add-ons and the open web. These community members attend and present at large conferences all over the world as representatives of the Mozilla Add-ons community.
The Ambassador team was first organized in late 2009 and was initially composed of 10 individuals from across the globe. Since then the group has helped push the Mozilla Add-ons SDK forward and drive adoption in the developer arena.
