This is a draft, don't rely on any of this information just yet

Role

For each combination of a particular locale (en-US, pl, de, etc) and product (Firefox, Thunderbird, Toolkit, (SeaMonkey is a little special for now)), Mozilla requests an owner. This has nothing to do with someone owning stuff, but is a project management role. The owner role includes the following tasks, among others:

  • default owner of bugs,
  • key spokesperson in communications between the Mozilla project and the localization, or the specific part of the localization,
  • team leadership internal to the l10n team in question, in the particular area.

As you can tell by now, Owners are much more holding responsibility than ownership. It's just that owner is a prettier nown. We assume that owners will follow the Mozilla way of doing project management, shortly put iron fist in velvet glove.

Other obligations

CVS

Owners have CVS write access to the l10n repository.

Following announcements

Mozilla assumes that all owners follow the communication in .l10n on a regular basis.

Firefox owners

Please look at L10n:Firefox Extras.

Trademarks

Owners should have read and understood the trademarks documents. And of course follow them.
