Developer Relations

  • Planning to add a session store sample this week.
• DevRel pitched in to help get user documentation updates wrapped up for RC1.
• Nutch is now working to provide improved search capability. Go to Special:Nutch to try it out; it needs testing before we replace the current search with it.
• We could use some help with some PHP code and assorted other web coding to help improve MDC.

Webdev, Add-ons, AMO

• Firefox Party!
