MDN 0.9.x (Danger Mouse) Goals

With the initial 0.9 version of the MDN website live, we have received a lot of great feedback and want to address it in the next round 0.9.* releases. In addition, we have a few features that were pushed out due to limited time and webdev resources, so we need to get them implemented ASAP in order to meet our MDN goals for Q4 (and the carryovers from Q3).

Team:

  • Jay Patel - PM
  • Fred Wenzel and Austin King - Dev
  • Craig Cook and Chris Howse - Dev/Design
  • Raymond Etornam and Stephen Donner - QA
  • Sheppy, Janet, and Paul - Docs & Demos
