Mozilla Open Source Evangelist
If Shuttleworth is Microsoft's Freddy Krueger, then Blizzard is its Jason. Blizzard, a former Red Hat engineer and Mozilla board member, left both posts in late 2007 to take on a full-time role as a salaried evangelist at Mozilla, the organization that oversees development of the Firefox web browser and Thunderbird open email client.
Blizzard won widespread attention when he became one of the first members of the Mozilla organization to openly state that Firefox had flaws in how it handles system memory, and that fixing those flaws was a top priority. Blizzard has also been among those explaining Mozilla's new strategy to develop mobile technology.
