Traditional Mozillian Contributors
- Definition: Mozilla contributors who are already engaged in other Mozilla projects.
- Motivation: believe in the mission, interested in technology. Especially keen on doing things that they’ve done in other Mozilla projects. Localising the experience to their language/country/region is one.
- How to recruit: leverage existing methods of recruiting contributors.
App enthusiasts/Marketplace evangelists
- Definition: the big question is, does this person exist? We’re not sure, but we know that they’re very important to this project, and there’s a possibility that the other two user types could have strong interest and expertise in apps.
- Motivation: passionate to share their expertise about apps and specific types of apps (photography/music) with others
- How to recruit: find people in the Marketplace already contributing content (e.g. reviews)
Participants
- Definition: active users whose primary interest is in apps. Not necessarily in localisation/maintenance. Not necessarily with review expertise, either.
- Motivation: passionate about apps. Want to find apps in the marketplace and help others find apps. Would participate in activities like leaving reviews, upvoting contenting, sharing content, etc.
- How to recruit: find people in the Marketplace who are already contributing content (e.g. reviews)
