Plugins are in important part of the browsing experience. That is why we could use your help testing the fix for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=525533. Here is what you need to do tomorrow when the fix will have landed:

This document is referenced in the QMO FAQ, but I thought I would blog about it to remind our community that if they are new to the project, there is a useful presentation I created back in the spring that gives a good overview of the underpinnings of the Mozilla QA team and the work that we do.  You can find it here: http://www.slideshare.net/mozillamarcia/mozilla-under-the-hood-1257014.

We recently began using Twitter as another mechanism to communicate with our community.  We have a generic screenname you can follow for Mozilla QA news: MozillaQA

Or you can always search for "Mozilla" or "Firefox" in the "Find People" section of Twitter to see if there any other users you might want to follow. Read More...
