If you'd like to participate in some of these groups, or at least watch, learn, get up to speed, you can almost always do so by lurking on the public IRC channels and mailing lists that the groups use.

Membership in this group signals to the W3C bot that Mozilla's IPR commitments cover your contributions by virtue of your employment. | |||
