Welcome to Mozilla's standards participation page.

This is a directory of standards organizations and their working groups, listing who at Mozilla is working with each.

For a technology summary see the technologies page, for Mozilla’s positions on particular specifications, see:

Current discussions of Mozilla positions:

The lists below are organized alphabetically by standards body and working group (if any), with Mozilla participants and specifications they edit/author/contribute to.

If you’re a Mozillian actively & directly participating in a standards body (working group email list, IRC, wiki, and/or f2f meetings), please add yourself to the specific standards body / working group if any), linking to your wiki User: page. If you’re working in multiple working groups or standards organizations, add yourself to each.

Thanks!

Web Standards Coordination

General Participation Guidelines

If you'd like to participate in some of these groups, or at least watch, learn, get up to speed, you can almost always do so by lurking on the public IRC channels and mailing lists that the groups use. Many (most?) standards mailing lists can often be overwhelming in quantity, depth so start with IRC as that's often lighter-weight and easier to watch for quick bits of info/knowledge.
