Security content for MDN (curtisk)

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Security/

  • met with Sheppy & mcoates
  • no process -> very informal
    • just start making stuff, MDN will handle organization
  • need documentation of anything
  • any contribution would be a win

MDN Problem: people don't complain, so they don't have much to go on what is wanted

How to find Documentation requests

  • bugzilla: Component: Documentation Requests / Product: Mozilla Developer Network
  • Ask does this need documentation?
    • How can others do this too to help us? How can the community use this to contribute?

What makes a good MDN article?

Don't Panic

  • Get it written, someone will come along and make it pretty, just get it down
  • don't worry about look, grammer etc lots of people to make it good who monitor for new content
  • seed the area and others will contribute as well
    • this can end the cycle of problems

Good topics:

  • websockets sec concerns
  • fuzzing
  • things to think about when designing a feature
    • process stuff is good too
    • how to get an appropriate security review
  • need server side stuff, how-to
    • soup to nuts, server, app, code, network etc.
  • Write secure Apps (FirefoxMarket)?
