"textContent": "This is my report on activities of the [Mozilla Foundation][Mozilla] for the week ending October 13, 2006.\n\nProjects for the week\n\nHere’s a partial listing of what I and others at the Foundation did this past week:\n\n- IP-related issues. I had some more discussions with folks about how to handle the SeaMonkey trademarks.\n\n Next action(s): More discussions about creating trademark policies for SeaMonkey, Sunbird, and other non-Corporation products.\n\n- Grants and related activities. I attended the [Mozilla accessibility summit][] in Cambridge MA to talk to the various people we’ve funded to do accessibility-related work, and get an update on accessibility-related development activities. It was a great event; for more information on what went on see [Mark Pilgrim’s accessibility summit blog post][pilgrim]. As noted in Mark’s post we also completed paperwork on funding XUL accessibility work by [WebAIM][]; I’m glad that got done and we’re able to announce it to everyone. Finally, I’m happy to note that the Mozilla Foundation will be a sponsor of the [W4A conference on accessibility][w4a] next year.\n\n Next action(s): Follow up with some other candidates for funding.\n\n- Press. I did two interviews about the announcement that [future versions of Eudora will be based on open source][eudora] (namely Thunderbird).\n\n Next action(s): None at this time.\n\nUpcoming activities\n\n- Zak will be stopping by to visit at Mozilla HQ in Mountain View in late October while he’s in town for the [Zend/PHP conference][].\n- Frank to be at Mozilla HQ in Mountain View November 15--17 (tentative).\n\nThis concludes the report.\n\n[Mozilla accessibility summit]: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Accessibility_Hackfest_2006\n[pilgrim]: http://diveintomark.org/archives/2006/10/13/mozilla-accessibility-summit\n[WebAIM]: http://www.webaim.org/\n[eudora]: http://www.mozilla.com/press/mozilla-2006-10-11.html\n[w4a]: http://www.w4a.info/\n[Zend/PHP conference]: http://www.zendcon.com/\n[Mozilla]: http://www.mozillafoundation.org/",
