AGENDA

TOPIC OF THE WEEK

1. FireFox accounts Rebrand: Firefox accounts is becoming Mozilla accounts. You can learn more about that here: Firefox accounts renamed to Mozilla accounts: What you need to know
   1. Over the years, Firefox accounts expanded its role beyond being solely an authentication solution for Firefox Sync. It now serves as Mozilla's main authentication and account management service for a wide range of products and services, supporting millions of active account customers globally. As such, the original "Firefox" branding no longer accurately reflects the broad scope of Mozilla's offerings.
   2. Editorial guidelines for Mozilla accounts

1. Review Checker integration into Firefox Desktop V119 and Android/IOS V12
   1. Foxfooding is in progress currently. NDA'd contributors on Slack can join the Foxfooding channel non NDA'd contributors who are interested can get an invite. Share your preferred email with Sarto and we will ask the Foxfooding team to invite you.
   2. We will be running a campaign similar to previous Major release sentiment tracking campaigns we have done in the past. We will request assistance in identifying inbound specific to the review checker integration, to label and add those questions to a tracking spreadsheet. More details to come via a discussion thread on SUMO in the upcoming weeks.
   3. When this lands, it will be US only to start and will only work on 3 shopping sites. We should expect some follow up time to quality check the integration , add functionality, and ensure its working as intended in the US before it looks to be expanded to more shopping stores and regions.
