<div dir="ltr"><div>Yes, I am aware of those. But I think those are solving a different problem - they have a wider scope of helping contributors to "all of Mozilla" (or for the latter at least "all of Mozilla development"). In my view, the Firefox get involved page should be about contributing to the Firefox desktop browser front-end project specifically, and the contents should be tailored to that (who to talk to, where to find us, specific discussion venues, etc.).<br>

<br></div>I think it's pretty important that we have a good "gateway" into contributing to Firefox development, and I think that page could serve that purpose. It should be fairly high-level, I think - linking to other existing resources, and providing context about how and why they are useful to Firefox developers.<br>
<br>The mobile team has a page that I think is better than ours:<br><br><a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Get_Involved" target="_blank">https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Get_Involved</a><br><br></div><div>Who's interested in helping improve our page? We could start by shamelessly ripping off a lot of the Mobile team's work, but I'm also interested in ideas for improving the page further, and discussion about who the target audience should be, how we can improve the contributor "funnel", etc.<br>
