It's really fantastic to see Mozilla become a sort of steward and incubator of the open web. Considering that Mozilla originally came from a revolutionary (at the time) and somewhat desperate attempt by Netscape to counter the monopoly power of Microsoft/IE. If I'm remembering correctly, this was the first high profile corporate OSS dump (years before Java, for example) and shortly thereafter was largely considered a failure since Netscape became irrelevant and the Mozilla project didn't stop the MS juggernaut. Therefore it would be a number of years before a company was willing to take a risk like that again.<p>Of course with hindsight we can see that the Mozilla folks played the long game. Quietly working in the background they produced a product (Firefox) that actually did largely kill IE dominance. You can argue the role that Chrome had in this, but my opinion is that Firefox created the market for non-IE browsers. Without this trailblazing Chrome would not exist.<p>Congrats to everyone responsible, from the beginning to the present day.
