Oct. 26, 2009

mozilla.com vs. mozilla-europe.org vs. spreadfirefox.com

• not clear on which is the best home
• marketing wants mozilla.com for visibility

Design issues

• Guide page, lang chooser
• mockups with actual content (i.e. not lorem ipsum) would be helpful
• Dynamic content not planned well
  • e.g. "Submit a success story" where is the form for this
  • mozilla.com and dynamic forms don't mix, this will have to be built in a separate code base
• Why are we building a new design for this?
  • To move away from Spread Firefox, to Mozilla.com look and feel, and also to enable L10n

L10n

• aiming to launch with 5 languages
• looking for more translations over time, after launch

Timing

• Webdev schedule is full, and we all agree isn't a high priority project
• Estimated to take 2-3 weeks for dev, 1 week for QA
• Most likely won't start until Q1 2010
