Hi Ivan:
Some help would be great, but the packaging part only takes 30 minutes; it's
not what's time consuming. Do you think you could help with the development of
special feature? Also, we need to move the free addon page and make entries in
the fsf free software directory. Helping on that end would be great. Do you
think you could help with this also? I know Ian Dunn has done some work on that
end ao coordinating with him would be great! I'll see what you can help with
for "packaging" but it's not the part where most manpower is needed.
Regarding improvements to firefox lately; I agree, and help with the list of
things to do will help make thia faster.
Thanks,
