  "textContent": "I don't really like to do this, but I'm wearing too many hats at the moment and with recent contributions I realised that I don't really get nearly as much done as I should with things ending up on the back-burner pretty much indefinitely. Not only does this mean slower progress than what we really need, but also catching myself making too many mistakes.\n\nI'm going to have to re-evaluate where I spend my time so I'll be focusing on fewer things and stepping back from doing major code development.\n\nGoing forward, my main focuses will be:\n\n  * Security bugs with every release cycle. This has become much more of an intense job with the massive increase of AI-involved reports leading to massive audits I have to work through.\n  * Analysing crash reports and finding fixes for those crashes.\n  * Code review (both existing/active code and pull requests).\n  * Release engineering (website, build wrangling, packaging, language packs, ...).\n  * B2B communication as project lead.\n  * Server and services maintainer.\n\nWhat I will not/no longer be focusing on, which I'm hoping others in the community will be helping out with:\n\n  * New code/feature development. I'm taking a major step back here; I'll still be available for answering questions or giving feedback, of course (see also code review above).\n  * Code cleanup tasks. These tend to not be very complex but time consuming. Even if you're not a programmer but are OK with getting familiar with our build system and general wrangling of source code, then you can help out.\n  * Keeping an eye on forks/spinoffs/adjacent projects and possible code adoption from them (if you find something we can/should use, make a patch and/or pull request).\n  * Web compatibility analysis/fixes/workarounds and potential webmaster/framework evangelism.\n  * End-user general support questions of any kind. Y'all here on the forum have got this down pretty well, as a group\n\nI may also be reducing general forum participation. If you need my feedback on something and I don't seem to have noticed a thread, feel free to nudge me about it in e.g. a PM.\n\nThis will hopefully allow me to be more focused and revisit some things that have gone very much stale (like Pale Moon Commander etc.) as time allows.\n\n* * *",
