Related tech and skills: documentation, JavaScript
=== [[Bugzilla component-watching]] === It's common for a developer to want to "watch" all the bugs that are filed in a certain [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org Bugzilla] component. Mozilla uses a convoluted and painful system of synthetic accounts to simulate this capability, and we'd all really prefer to be able to do it more directly and with less opportunity for error. Reference: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76794 Bug 76794] === [http://cs1.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Applescript_support_for_Firefox Applescript AppleScript support for Firefox] ===
Lots of people would like to script Firefox from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppleScript AppleScript] (or, more generally, from the [http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleScript/Conceptual/AppleScriptX/Concepts/osa.html OSA]), and extension authors would like to be able to call out to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppleScript AppleScript]/[http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleScript/Conceptual/AppleScriptX/Concepts/osa.html OSA] from their code as well.
Reference: See https://despot.mozilla.org/help.html and http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/despot/README. Also, please speak with [[User:Reed|Reed Loden]] (reed) about this project.
