code reviewer
A recent blog post reflects some concern over the number of serious resources available for code/patch review for Firefox.
最近的博客文章反映了对可用于Firefox的代码/补丁审阅的大量资源的担忧。
This post, by one of the senior hackers involved in the evolution of the browser, perhaps shows more the frustration and difficulty encountered in light of the explosive growth of Firefox.
这篇涉及浏览器发展的资深黑客之一的这篇文章,也许显示出鉴于Firefox的爆炸性增长而遇到的更多挫败感和困难。
As with most successful open source projects – a huge amount of work is completed by volunteers. However, in many cases public and private companies also pledge senior developers to a project which costs them money (through allowing the developer to pledge time during work hours to contribute).
与大多数成功的开源项目一样,志愿者完成了大量工作。 但是,在许多情况下,上市公司和私营公司还向高级开发人员保证一个项目的成本(通过允许开发人员在工作时间中做出贡献的时间)。
Of course this is not done out of pure altruism from a corporate perspective – the company often sees a real need for the application or technology and wants to benefit from its success.
当然,从企业的角度来看,这并不是出于纯粹的利他主义而进行的-公司经常看到对应用程序或技术的真正需求,并希望从其成功中受益。
This latter element also often can salvage a lagging open source project when volunteers run out of time and energy. Perhaps there is an additional angel waiting in the wings for Firefox.
当志愿者时间和精力不足时,后一个元素通常也可以挽救一个落后的开源项目。 也许还有一个天使正在等待Firefox。
The Mozilla Foundation did not respond to a request for a clear background on the review process for Firefox and if there would be paid developers at some point in the near future for the project.
Mozilla基金会没有回应有关为Firefox进行审查的过程提供清晰背景的请求,也没有响应该项目是否会在不久的某个时候得到付费开发人员的请求。
Even if one is not a high level hacker who can jump into code for a major project – any of us who heavily leverage open source should find ways to contribute to projects we find value in. This can be accomplished in many ways – assisting with marketing, documentation, testing and qa, advocacy as well as working at the code level.
即使不是可以进入大型项目代码的高级黑客,我们每个人都应该充分利用开放源代码,他们应该找到方法为我们认为有价值的项目做出贡献。这可以通过多种方式实现-协助营销,文档,测试和质量检查,倡导以及在代码级别上的工作。
