Developer Engagement
Team Lead: Stormy Peters Mailing List:
Mozilla is a non-profit organization that exists to make the Web better for people everywhere. As part of that mission, we advocate for the use of open technologies to ensure that anybody, anywhere can create for the Web. We are a group of people who are passionate about the Web and have seen it evolve from simple text pages to complex applications. We help developers learn about, build with and champion open technologies so the Web itself is open.
