1714434 - Update the "Contribute to the Mozilla codebase" link in the "volunteer oportunities" page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: Pages & Content, task)

Description

[Gabriele Svelto [:gsvelto]]

The "Contribute to the Mozilla codebase" link in the https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/ page points to MDN archived content.

We don't have a 1-to-1 equivalent of that page but the closest we could find is https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/getting_set_up.html which is in-tree and thus should be kept up-to-date.

Duplicate of https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/issues/10244

But there are two different links suggested in each bug. Which one is better?

• https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/getting_set_up.html
• https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/contributing/contribution_quickref.html

[Sylvestre Ledru [:Sylvestre]]

first, https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/getting_set_up.html should renamed (I am preparing a patch for this)

Then, the URL are equivalent. The first is for Mozilla contributions, the second is specially for Firefox...
Depends what we want to recommend...

Feels like it is a decision for Mike

Sylvestre, what was the result of these updates? Do we have a new URL we can point contributors to on our public pages?
