Perhaps we can use that model to restart the mozdev website maintenance and uplift process. No doubt many of the AMO developers are paid contractors but having an active volunteer team with one or two central gate-keepers rather than a bunch of formal "positions" where each person is responsible for one particular area might encourage more people to chip in if it appears to them that the barriers to entry are relatively low.
It might be good to move the actual mozdev site source code to something more modern like SVN which would encourage people to download the code and work on it. How complete is the wossname hovercraft package and how easy is it for some vounteeer with some sysadmin experience to install mozdev locally for testing purposes? Drupal: The problem is that this is fairly intimidating and the barriers to entry are very high. Most of us however have experience running (or at least moderating) a webforum running PHPbbs or Invision Powerboard.
