Hi - this list is for projects that Mozilla '''currently''' uses and relies on. If we start using ReactOS in a significant way in our infrastructure, it can be added to the list. In the future, MOSS may have a track for giving grants to projects in the wider open source community, but that isn't there yet.

== KiCAD? ==
In our project we us KiCAD quite a bit for circuit board design, and it's begun to gain traction outside of the original core developer community, specifically at CERN.  When I went to Mozfest last year, there were a few projects in the open science community (including ours, PhotosynQ.org) there which also used KiCAD.  A small amount of support to KiCAD would get it a long long way.  Is this appropriate to add to the list?
-- Hi. The Mozilla project doesn't design hardware or circuit boards and doesn't use KiCAD, so it's not an appropriate addition to the list.

Hi! Is it only your own opinion and decision? We believe Mozilla could benefit from ReactOS in not so far future.

KiCAD?

In our project we us KiCAD quite a bit for circuit board design, and it's begun to gain traction outside of the original core developer community, specifically at CERN. When I went to Mozfest last year, there were a few projects in the open science community (including ours, PhotosynQ.org) there which also used KiCAD. A small amount of support to KiCAD would get it a long long way. Is this appropriate to add to the list?
