From what I hear, now is a good time to propose some work on the developer docs. Can we have a discussion about what holes need to be filled, and what needs updating? My concern is that Mozilla development is going to belong to an 'exclusive club'. Let's spread the religion. Here are some things we could use: - we could use a good overview of the architecture. - a section from the point of view of a web developer who just knows HTML and javascript, and they want to start coding their own chrome. They don't need to go through building from source, they can just develop using a release build with mozilla -console. A tutorial with examples would be good - a lot of these guys are more right brained. - A reference for the Mozilla API, listing the important objects and methods available to Javascript developers. - In general I think a lot of the developers could spend a day or two updating documentation relevant to their area. Some things are out of date or should eventually be consolodated and cleaned up.

Turning this into a META bug. Please add META keyword.
accepting QA for mozilla developer docs. some of these bugs have been around for a _long_ time. Reporters, would you please review the bugs, see if the issues have been resolved, and close bugs appropriately. I will do a full review of all bugs not touched in one week (8th April). Thanks. </spam>

So, this is an abandoned meta bug for abandoned documentation bugs in products where they'll never be noticed, or changed when they get documented? Bet it will work just as well with a closed resolution, then.
