Alice "Alice0775" White has been a tremendous contributor for several years. Without Alice's tireless efforts testing, filing bugs and writing patches, Firefox 4 would not be the great browser that it is.

(via robcee, joedrew, tn, etc.)

Aleksej for helping to moderate the Firefox 4 FIXED bugday and for helping out before the event went live. Also, Steve Scott (:pxbugz) for verifying 45 fixes.
