:Funding for the foundation comes from donations from corporations and individuals. 
Is there a list of corporate sponsors?  I heard Google and Nokia are "involved".  A-giau 15:53, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes. With Google you can find examples of Mozilla employees using that abbreviation and an entry for MoFo in an acronym dictionary. -- Schapel 13:12, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

message: There's no section about the name Mozilla being a play on words on Godzilla?  And the dinosaur logo? Where did the name Mozilla come from? --24.249.108.133 18:24, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

message: One thing that has never been clear (to me) is Mozilla's relationship to Netscape/AOL/Time Warner. Can somebody answer explicitly and unambiguously the following questions and add the info to the article?
*What relationship does the current Mozilla Foundation have with Netscape (or any of its other former "parent" entities)?
*Who provides principal funding for MF?
*In what way were Netscape and Mozilla different entities prior to the founding of Mozilla as an NPO?
*When Netscape originally released the browser code as open source, who was assigned the copyright to that source?
*Is the relation of Netscape browsers to Mozilla/Firefox privileged in any fashion, or are Netscape's browsers simply a third-party modification to the Mozilla source?

message: The article says the board has 7 members, and then lists 6.  Any word on who the secret illuminati representative is?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.172.93.221 (talk) 20:03, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Secret illuminati? They only appear to have six members. They may have had seven at one time  and it appears their constitution allows up to seven  but one of the board members must have left and they never bothered to get another one (nor are they required to) so they only have six at the current time. Someone forgot to change the number when removing the name I guess Nil Einne (talk) 13:18, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

message: 4 employees, and they're pulling in 66 million dollars per year? What happened to the notion of sharing the wealth...? They should set up offices in some beautiful picturesque tourist town, and add to the local economy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.201.218.65 (talk) 18:29, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Is the foundation owned by Time Warner? Because I think it's part of AOL. --172.206.85.126 (talk) 09:24, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The infobox on this page says that the Mozilla Foundation has 4 employees. The history indicates that it has been this way for quite some time. While I can't find any source indicating that it doesn't indeed have 4 employees, I just find it very unlikely that a company of this much importance would have only 4 employees. --Sauronjim (talk) 03:07, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

message: This article only has one reference.  seems like some more details could be sourced.  any takers? -Tracer9999 (talk) 16:57, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: More references?

message: Would anyone be opposed to combining Mozilla Japan, Mozilla China, and Mozilla Europe into one article such as User:EvilHom3r/International_Mozilla_Organizations (or perhaps "Mozilla Affiliates")? 
I have also merged Mozilla Online into this article since it seems pointless to link to a one-line article. Mozilla Messaging could potentially be merged into this article too given its short nature. EvilHom3r (talk) 04:45, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  International Affiliates  

message: According to Mozilla, the current branding for the Mozilla Foundation is their wordmark, set in Meta Bold, which has replaced the classic Mozilla dino head logo. So, I'm swapping out dino head with the wordmark in this article.

message: :Yahoo! Search, however, is merely a front for Microsoft's search engine Bing, and Microsoft takes a 12% cut of all revenue from the search business.
Found this in the financing section. Holy Bias, Batman! How is this relevant to Firefox? And with the wording "merely a front", I am picturing an anti-"m$" open source guy saying that with clenched teeth. I get Firefox/OSS people aren't fans of Microsoft but this just seems like a pointless, unrelated jab. Anybody else agree?
