The following is a list of Mozilla accessibility projects where contributors are needed. (structure by time commitment? difficulty?)

Mozilla A11y Social Media

Accessibility/Social

Contributor Opportunities:

  • Manage social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
  • Contribute content (updates, tweets, etc)

Interested? Contact John Doe

Accessibility Web Mess Cleanup

Contributors are needed to update the content on the "necessary - high priority essential" pages listed at Accessibility/WebMess/724672

Some of the content on the pages listed there is obsolete, out of date, and/or contains broken links.

Interested? Contact Jane Doe

Accessibility Content on MDN

Contributors are needed to review accessibility documents at the Mozilla Developer Network and if necessary,

  • update old content
  • remove obsolete content
  • add new content

An example of new would be adding an accessibility guide with best practices for app developers
XUL accessibility guidelines is a good document (in need of some updating) to use as a general reference

Places to start

Coding

To get started, you need to do these few things, in any order:

  • Make your own build of Firefox, from the source code of the development version (mozilla-central). This page explains how to do that.
  • Find a mentored bug: Find a task to work on. Use this search to find a mentored bug to work on. See below the list of current projects.
  • Register an account on Bugzilla.
  • Patch review: Once you have made a patch for a bug, attach it to the bug and request review for it. It's just a matter of setting 'review?' on it and selecting an appropriate reviewer.
