One thing we've learned at Mozilla is there is no such thing as client software succeeding on its own anymore. When a user is looking at which phone to purchase, they're not just looking at the hardware and the OS. They want movies, music, games, communications. It's all about giving users the whole end-to-end experience. We need to ask how to create horizontal platforms that anyone can build on. What Mozilla can do is create a services hub around a user. It may include services we build (like Marketplace) and services other people build (maybe a storage service). We need an account that is open so that anyone can hang that sort of information off of it. | One thing we've learned at Mozilla is there is no such thing as client software succeeding on its own anymore.

Firefox is critical. Firefox is what gives us the ability to move the web forward. The APIs that we ship in Firefox OS could not be standardized without the pull we get from Firefox. We're also helping hundreds of millions of people to navigate the web. And it gives our brand its strength and the trust people place in it. Desktop is not going to go away overnight. We can get a lot out of it and do a lot for people if we keep improving it. | |||

We are applying more focus than ever before to the long-term sustainability of Mozilla. That sounds like a fancy way of saying money, and maybe it is. We want to be around for 50, 100 years. We need to hedge against the idea that desktop search over time will deteriorate and is not the source of revenue that will take us through the next 50 years. | |||
It's been a challenge. The relationship between money and open source can be strained. But it shouldn't be. It's a tool in the toolbox; there's no need to be overly religious about it. And participation in the commercial ecosystem is something that we believe is necessary; it's part of our [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/ manifesto]. We should be very attentive toward what we believe is the right thing to do, and we will have debates about it. But we have the opportunity and the goal to make Mozilla sustainable for the next 50 or 100 years. | |||

The bedrock of everything we do, built into how we do things, is how we do things openly and transparently. Frankly, from a competitive standpoint, it's how we punch above our weight. We couldn't do the local launch activities for Firefox OS without our local communities. We couldn't have built the product without our community of partners. We need to continue to focus on how we work and how to be open. | |||
