This page contains all of the important details for State of Mozilla website project(s).

Background

Every year, Mozilla releases the yearly financial documents (audited financial statements and form 990). Most of the news stories around these annual reports focused on the financials and the Google relationship and not Mozilla as a whole.

In 2009, for the first time, Mozilla's PR team reoriented the annual report to focus on where we are in the project, on the people that contribute to the project and an update on the products. Visual assets like photos, videos and graphs were incorporated.

The result was very effective and we got positive feedback from both the press and the Mozilla community.

Goals

  • Share financial statements and form 990
  • Create a microsite that provides context and compelling content about the people contributing to the Mozilla project, the project itself, and an update on the products
  • Garner positive press attention from around the world
  • Share the report in 7+ languages

Measurements

  • Press mentions
