Drivers subscribe to the MDN-drivers mailing list, where most of the discussions will happen, and also participate in a monthly meeting. The expectation is that drivers will propose and champion features (via bugs in Bugzilla & discussion in the mailing list) relevant to their areas of interest, but also evaluate all bugs & proposed features and their impact on developers and contributors and prioritize accordingly.

MDN development uses a continuous deployment process, where we create "cards" of work that are passed into the dev team via a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban Kanban] board. Cards are created from the MDN backlog, which is a list of bugs in Bugzilla that are ordered primarily based on votes, duplicate counts, and priority. For most bugs, the best way to influence MDN product development is to [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=voting.html vote] on the bugs in Bugzilla and participate in the prioritization of top vote-getting bugs. Drivers also can, and should, champion low-vote bugs that are essential to their products, the developer/contributor experience, and performance/security - the point of having drivers is to add intelligence to the process beyond just votes on bugs.
