I think the worst part of the funding equation is that had Mozilla stayed on mission and invested it's Google fees wisely, Firefox development could have been indefinitely funded.

Instead, we have had Mozilla sprawling in numerous directions secondary to the browser and failing in nearly all of them.

That is the problem, people want to run a modern corporation with its tentacles always reaching and growing instead of focusing on a core business proposition that they can win at.

If you dont grow at double digit percentages year of year, are you even trying?

Mozilla Corporation was a mistake.
