Project Huma: Background

Project Huma covers the series of tasks on the Firefox product site between the December 2010 visual refresh and the Firefox 4 launch later in Q1. (What's Huma?)

The overall idea is that the visual refresh is the beginning of the project rather than the end (as has been the case with past refreshes). The list below details a series of projects that are needed to get the site ready for Firefox 4. Once we've confirmed the available resources, we should group these into a series of bi-weekly releases. Note: this page only covers changes to the core product site...does not include other work on mozilla.org or tasks specific to upcoming marketing campaigns.

The following projects are listed in rough chronological order (specific release dates are TBD):
