Hello,
I am writing to request PPU to Firefox and Membership on Ubuntu Mozilla
Daily Build Team and Mozilla Team. I have been a contributor
to Ubuntu for some years and am currently and Ubuntu Contributing
Developer. Although most of my contributions these days
are upstream in Firefox as a member of the Firefox Release Management Team
and release owner for Firefox ESR and Nightly
I am very concerned about the current state of Firefox Nightly builds which
are not being frequently and consistently updated.
Myself and another Mozilla contributor (also a Ubuntu Core Dev) have
several times tried to get things transitioned to us but the current
maintainer is very unresponsive due to his new full time role with
Canonical. We also have Ubuntu users pretty regularly complaining about the
inconsistent updating of Firefox Nightly in Ubuntu through our support
channels and on social media which reflects poorly on both Mozilla and
Ubuntu.
That being said as a upstream contributor who already plays an integral
role in releasing Firefox to downstream (Ubuntu) and our users
and with the packaging experience I have I am asking for these memberships
and PPU so that myself and that other contributor
can step in and tag team Firefox in Ubuntu and make the experience better
for the users.
Cheers,
Benjamin Kerensa
