Mozilla chief John Lilly is fired up about making a better Web browser
,----[ Quote ]
| With 200 employees and a $50-million budget, Mozilla is the for-profit
| subsidiary of the nonprofit Mozilla Foundation. Firefox is "open source,"
| meaning users everywhere are encouraged to improve it. Its success depends
| largely on thousands of devoted volunteers -- 40% of the code is written by
| people who don't clock in.
|
| "If people participate in the construction of the Web, it will be better and
| more robust." For example, Mozilla produced Firefox in one language: English.
| Volunteers translated it into 61 other languages and also made it accessible
| to the blind and deaf and others with physical limitations. Next up: Firefox
| for mobile phones. Consumers appreciate the Mozilla mission: "It's like
| organic food. When you tell people about the values that go into building the
| product, it builds loyalty."

[John Lilly:] my new job at mozilla
,----[ Quote ]
| Sometimes in life, you find an opportunity to make a difference in something
| you care about, and it feels like, even though you didn’t know it at the
| time, that the last few years have really just been practice, giving you the
| background, skills and ability to really help. And in a very few
| circumstances — once or twice in a lifetime if you’re lucky — the opportunity
| you get to make a difference is one that has a very large, even global
| impact. My new role as CEO of Mozilla Corporation feels like one of those
| times. [Here’s Mitchell’s announcement.]
