This is a new  and different approach to resolve the issue of add-on safety in the  sandbox and code reviews. All add-on developers should read this and  give feedback. It&#8217;s been a long process to try to find the right balance  of the many elements involved, and we think this is it.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/AMO:Editors\/EditorGuide\">The AMO Editor Guide<\/a>. This new page in the wiki is a comprehensive guide to the work performed by AMO Editors. It will serve as an introductory guide for new editors, and is a step forward in being as transparent as possible with our review process. There are still some corrections to be made, and I&#8217;ll be blogging more about it later this week.<\/li>\n<li>I made a proposal for the Google Summer of Code which has been <a href=\"http:\/\/xulforge.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/add-on-packaging-ideas-gsoc\/\">accepted  as a project<\/a>. The idea consists in simplifying and refreshing the  way add-ons are packaged and installed locally, including a completely  new manifest file. In the past couple of weeks I have been blogging the  spec proposal: <a href=\"http:\/\/xulforge.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/add-on-packaging-spec\/\">Part 1<\/a>,  <a href=\"http:\/\/xulforge.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/add-on-packaging-spec-2\/\">Part  2<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/xulforge.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/add-on-packaging-spec-3\/\">Part  3<\/a>. I&#8217;m now working on the wiki page that will be the actual <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.mozilla.org\/User:Jorge.villalobos\/AddonPackaging\">specification  for the project<\/a>, that incorporates much of the feedback received so  far. As the blog posts explain, this is <strong>not<\/strong> something that is  intended to be included on Firefox. It&#8217;s an experiment on how we can do  things differently, and hopefully (part of) it will be integrated into  the product after more community feedback and polish.<\/li>\n<li>AMO is currently being migrated to a new code base, some of which is   already live  in production.
