I did it! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548763

Unfortunately it took quite a long time, the Mozilla process is quite confusing to a newcomer, even one with a lot of open source project experience. I definitely second the recommendation of finding a mentor.

I don't think I would have been able to get my two patches into Mozilla if it wasn't for the mentored bugs program. It's incredibly useful and I wish more projects would implement it. ahemopenstackcough.

openstack is a "commercial" open source. Several (if not most) developers who contribute are paid by "companies" - so typically new "contributors" find mentors within their "company"
