Woops, looks like I missed my Two Year Moziversary!
|
|
|
|
|
2 years ago, in March 2018, I joined Mozilla as a Firefox Telemetry Engineer.
|
|
|
|
|
Last year I blogged about [what happened in my first year][one-year Moziversary].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One year later I am still in the same team, but other things changed.
|
|
|
|
|
Our team grew (hello Bea & Mike!), and shrank (bye Georg!), lots of other changes at Mozilla happened as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However one thing stayed during the whole year: Glean.
|
|
|
|
|
Culminating in the [very first Glean-written-in-Rust release][glean-release], but not slowing down after,
|
|
|
|
|
the Glean project is changing how we do telemetry in Mozilla products.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Glean is now being used in multiple products across mobile and desktop operating systems
|
|
|
|
|
([Firefox Preview](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/),
|
|
|
|
|
[Lockwise for Android](https://github.com/mozilla-lockwise/lockwise-android),
|
|
|
|
|
[Lockwise for iOS](https://github.com/mozilla-lockwise/lockwise-ios),
|
|
|
|
|
[Project FOG](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/telemetry/fog)).
|
|
|
|
|
We've seen over 2000 commits on that project,
|
|
|
|
|
published 16 [releases](https://github.com/mozilla/glean/releases)
|
|
|
|
|
and posted 14 [This Week in Glean blogposts](https://mozilla.github.io/glean/book/appendix/twig.html).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This year will be focused on maintaining Glean, building new capabailities and bringing more of Glean back into Firefox on Desktop.
|
|
|
|
|
I am also looking forward to speak more about Rust and how we use it to build and maintain cross-platform libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To the next year and beyond!

## Thank you

Thanks to my team: [:bea], [:chutten], [:Dexter], [:mdboom] & [:travis]!
|
|
|
|
|
Lots of my work involves collaborating with people outside my direct team, gathering feedback, taking in feature requests and triaging bug reports.
|
|
|
|
|
So thanks also to all the other people at Mozilla I work with.
