Well, yes and no. Fixes in shared areas with Firefox (Toolkit, Gecko) would mostly be picked up automatically. Ditto for shared code with Thunderbird (e.g. MailNews:Core)). If a feature requires some work on front end code, someone might need to porting the changes to SeaMonkey. If you know a bit of JavaScript and xhtml and CSS, you might even be able to help. > not going to get the same love that Firefox gets. Bit of a red-headed > stepchild. Some of the newer Firefox developers who joined Mozilla in the last few years might not even know SeaMonkey exists.
