== General Interest ==
# * How long have you been working on Mozilla?
# * If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be? (dria)
== Project Specific ==
# * A number of the projects have connections, for example, the d-bus and AppleScript project both need to allow data from outside to pass into the browser. Can you comment on this? Where to start in terms of the Mozilla side?
# * What types of "web services" can you imagine people wanting to connect a generalized-Joga extsion to?
# * Many of the projects have extension pieces (e.g., Joga, Bug Triage extension, etc.), and it seems like connecting these to the XULRunner project might be a good idea. Can you talk a bit about XULRunner with regard to these projects?
# * There is a lot of talk about Airbag as a potential replacement for Talkback. Can you talk about Airbag and what you see as the possible outcomes for people working on this? Where does Firefox connect to Airbag (i.e., where are the points of contact within Mozilla to an Airbag server)?
== Open Source Development Best Practices/Skills ==
# * It's clear that one of the main advantages of open source development is being able to use/consult/model/etc. existing code. How does one do this practically? For example, with respect to the [[OS X Keychain integration]] project, knowing that this has been done in other projects, where does one begin and how?
