Mozilla is an Open Source community. In that spirit, most communication happens out in the open (unless confidentiality is required, of course). This allows people in remote offices, people working from home, and community members alike to participate in all matters. Roughly speaking, the following forms of communication are used at Mozilla:
* IRC for ad-hoc conversations
* Bugzilla for tracking (Gecko) code changes
* GitHub for tracking B2G and Gonk code changes
* The public mailinglists for discussions
* This wiki for long-lived information, e.g. How-Tos, design documents, etc.
* [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/ MDN] for technical documentation.
See below for details.
