Thanks! Here is the text:

Thank you for your interest in Firefox Add-ons. It's easy to start contributing--whether by leaving a review of your favorite add-on, designing a theme, or creating an add-on, your efforts matter!

If you are new to add-ons, here are some things you can do at https://addons.mozilla.org:

============================
REVIEW YOUR FAVORITE ADD-ONS
============================

Search for your favorite add-on at https://addons.mozilla.org. On the add-on's detail page, scroll down to the Reviews section and leave a comment for the developer.

====================
CREATE A COLLECTION
====================

Collections make it easy to keep track of favorite add-ons and share your perfectly customized browser with others. Get started here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/collections/

===============
CREATE A THEME
===============

Background Themes let you personalize the look of your Firefox. To create your own, start here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/developers/docs/themes

---

If you are a more technical contributor, here are some things you can do:

=================
CREATE AN ADD-ON
=================

To get started, take a look at the Add-ons Developer Hub. It contains documentation, tools and information on how to get in touch with other developers:
https://addons.mozilla.org/developers/

Builder & SDK: The quickest and easiest way to create add-ons:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/builder

XUL School: A comprehensive tutorial for more advanced developers:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL_School

You can post questions and connect with other add-ons developers in the Add-ons Forum:
https://forums.mozilla.org/addons/

=================
HELP TEST ADD-ONS
=================

If you are interested in testing add-ons, you can join the quality team:
http://quality.mozilla.org/

It's also helpful to install the Add-ons Compatibility Reporter and use it to let us know when an add-on is not working properly:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter

======================
HELP ADD-ON DEVELOPERS
======================

If you're already familiar with add-on development or you think you're a good technical writer, help us improve the documentation for add-on developers: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons

You can also help by translating these docs to a different language (pro tip: try replacing the en-US part of the link above to your native language code).

Mike, is this something a Bedrock developer could take?
