        • Start of en-US and fr import on Wednesday to evaluate with French localizer Cédric Corazza
      • Everyone, please join the discussion about what new articles to include for Firefox 3 [2]
    • This week, we’ll change the top link to Support on mozilla.com and mozilla.org to point directly to SUMO
      • Prepared for this last week by adding a navigation path to Thunderbird users
  • Knowledge Base

    • Great help from the community (cor-el, Bo)

      • djst made a very, very funny joke about posting some questions himself in the forum — it wasn’t well received
  • Live Chat
    • Live Chat launched!
    • Incredible community reaction, a HUGE thanks to everyone who helped us out during the first very hectic days in the middle of the holidays
    • At least 15 new contributors readily available to help Firefox users

      • Great, new initiative by some community members to draft a possible future live chat solution based on an XMPP plugin that could work with existing IM clients, e.g. Pidgin.
