Create a Firefox extension that will allow citations, for nonperiodical (stand-alone) documents on the Internet, to be easily generated.
=== [[Functional Testing]] ===
Testing performed from a user's perspective. Includes the running and writing of test cases in [http://litmus.mozilla.org Litmus], filing and tracking bugs through [bugzilla.mozilla.org bugzilla], stress-testing and exploratory debugging. This project requires a dedication to breaking software in an organized and repeatable fashion. There is no such thing as "the wrong way" to use software and the functional tester is adept at abusing a system in previously-unknown ways.

=== [[Firefox Performance Testing : A Python framework for Windows | Performance Testing]] ===
Extending the performance tookit and tinderbox reporting system. The project begins with a framework for testing pageloads and startup times in Win32. The successful completion of this project will see this framework develop into a more robust system complete with processor-timing information and graphing. Memory analysis and samples during runs would also be beneficial. Further success or subprojects could include porting the system Linux and OS X platforms.

== Potential Projects -- You busy? ==
Literally every day, there are informal exchanges on IRC (e.g., #extdev, #developers, #firefox, #seneca, etc.) and newsgroups that are fantastic fodder for small, focused documents. Collect these exchanges and fleshing them out as recipes for extension authors that include sample code.
