Firefox Summit/1 Year in Mozilla

It has been an amazing year for the Mozilla project. Last week we had a gathering of many of the contributors to the project. During the introduction I did a quick preso trying to characterize the last year. Here are some of the highlights.

Over the last year we've had:

• Checkins: 18,187
• ~25% of the Code Changed
• Bugs Fixed (via checkin): 3,624
• Patches attached to bugs: 22,463
• New Bugzilla Comments: 363,370
• New Bugzilla Accounts: 38,510
• Oldest Bug Fixed: 1156 (Filed Oct 1998)
• Shipping in 39 Locales

Some of these numbers are quite amazing. There are approximately 1,000 comments added to bugs A DAY. We’ve had a near 50% growth in bugzilla accounts, and the average number of committers per month is steadily growing (now over 100).

This is good news – it means the project is healthy and growing and proof that we’ve got a large number of people who contribute to the project.

The week 1.5 was released was quite interesting:

• Downloads first day: 1.5M (700Mb/s!)
• Downloads to Date: >7M (~35 TB total transfer)
• Peak Transfer: 127 Downloads/s (5Gb/s)

Here's what the launch of mozilla.com looked like (blue line):

Mozilla.org/Mozilla.com together generate about 92M page views a Month. Handled smoothly through LVS and linux/x86 servers. developer.mozilla.org has also seen tremendous growth and interest over the last year:

• 11,000 Pages
• 26,000 Edits last 9 Months
• 3,193 Registered Users
• 70K Page Views a day

The day of the launch there were 136+ articles on Google news and Firefox, Firefox 1.5 and Greasemonkey were the top 3 searches on Technorati. Comments on the release have been overwhelmingly postive.

Finally, if you haven't seen it - you should definitely watch the IE/Firefox rocketboom segment.

Notes from the technical sessions can be found here.

Here's to another great year!
