[Consultants] Software Engineer - FireFox Plugin

[Ben Stull]

Hi Mozilla Developers!

A new startup within Microsoft is incubating a collaboration platform that exposes some functionality to the web.  We're committed to supporting multiple browsers and are currently searching for someone to develop a FireFox plugin.  Part of our platform exists as a scriptable COM object (ActiveX control) - we need to expose this functionality through a FireFox plugin.

The plug-in requirements are as follows:

-           Supports the same interface as the ActiveX control

-           Behaves the same as the ActiveX control

-           Passes all ActiveX control events to client JavaScript that has the FireFox extension loaded

-           Supports an upgrade scenario that will not require the FireFox browser to close

-           Handles errors correctly and in the same manner as the ActiveX control does

-           Functions correctly on XP SP2 and Vista

-           Functions correctly on FireFox version 2.0 and above

Our team is great bubble within Microsoft that has a grand vision of cross-platform collaboration.  This should be a straightforward project for anyone well-versed in COM and XPCOM.  Please contact me directly for further details on the project and time-line.
