Roadmap
v1.0
v1.0 was released, based in part on work done in the security audit. Further revisions will be addressed on a case-by-case basis as our efforts turn towards v2.0, which is based on a much better framework.
v2.0
addons.mozilla.org will be rewritten. v2.0 has two key points:
- reimplement and fix existing features and functionality
- add new features and functionality
We realize that rewriting has been a long time coming. This is why we have reevaluated our situation and have set more realistic short-term goals.
Read the v2.0 plan.

Volunteering
We are looking for volunteers to help us with UMO. We are in need of PHP developers to help with redesigning the site, and people to review extensions and themes that get submitted to UMO. We especially need mac OS users, and Thunderbird users. If you are interested in being a part of this exciting project, please do the following:
For Reviewers
1. Create an UMO account at https://addons.mozilla.org/developers/createaccount.php
2. Send an email to umo-reviewer at mozilla.org with the subject "UMO Volunteer Step 1". The email should contain: the name you used when creating your account, the email address you used for the account, and the account ID (in the Developer Control Panel, click "Your Profile" - the user ID is in the URL).
3. If you're also interested in being a developer, please see below.
Also, please join us in #umo on irc.mozilla.org to start getting a feeling for what's up!
For Developers
Stop by #umo-dev on irc.mozilla.org - you'll probably want to talk to morgamic.
