Thanks for pointing us to this Emma. I work for Mozilla and I am not even aware of this awesome initiative :( Anyhow, I have also started a project to use open source and community to improve the lives of people all over the world but, specifically in developing countries. I will be sure to share the blog post, and fork the repo to our org page on Github and solicit contributions.
