Subject: [Project_owners] Why contribute to Mozilla?
Message-ID: 

Hello,

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Instructional Technology at the University of
Tennessee. My dissertation focuses on what motivates people to
contribute to F/OSS projects. Though it may seem obvious to you, many
non-programmers are still suspicious of OSS and think there must be a
catch. Can you help me to demonstrate why talented programmers are
willing to work for free? My survey should take no more than 15 minutes
and asks for no identifying information. 

Please click on the following link to take the survey. If you are
interested in the results of the survey, please send me a message. This
is my second request for participation; if you responded already, please
ignore this request.

http://ubiquity.utk.edu/limesurvey/index.php?sid=82655&lang=en

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hoda Baytiyeh.

Subject: [Project_owners] cvs web hiding files?
Message-ID: <4936D542.3060100@stlouis-shopper.com>

I have been uploading some .xpi files into the /src directory and notice 
these do not showup in cvsweb. So the question is: are these file types 
hidden in cvs web or am I missing something? It's not that I'm trying to 
release these now but just curious if there are some filetypes that are 
not shown via cvsweb.

Yes, .xpi (and some other typically larger file-types) are hidden from cvsweb 
to try to encourage project-owners to use the downloads/ directory and thus 
our mirror network.  See bug#6305 [1].

Subject: [Project_owners] Bugzilla Setup for recent Mozdev projects
Message-ID: <49428A1C.2080301@silfreed.net>

As I've been working through automating the project creation process, some
parts have been neglected such as setting up the bugzilla products.

If you are missing a bugzilla product for your project, feel free to contact 
us at feedback at mozdev.org and we'll get you set right up.  I've tried to go 
through projects that we missed recently and get bugzilla setup for them and 
have contacted the project owners to let them know.

I apologize for the delay in getting these setup.

-Doug

Subject: [Project_owners] problem with z-order of windows/dialogs on OS X
Message-ID: <7a9c88660812311455wc3b2c8uedf0abf393926e73@mail.gmail.com>

I use window.open to open a modal dialog (say, D1) from my extension. From
D1, another modal dialog D2 is opened in a similar way. On Windows, I get D2
on top of D1 on top of the original extension window. On Mac OS X, however,
D2 hides behind D1.
How can this be fixed?
