Thank you for the feedback, I'm really glad to get some insight from someone who worked on some of these projects!
Thanks for the info about Sunbird, I had the understanding that some code was shared, but wasn't sure how much. I'll update it's description at some point.
You bring up good points about stuff like forks, internal tooling, and hosted versions. Up until now I haven't included forks and hosted versions that didn't make significant changes (which is why I included MXR and not the LXR instance). I'd like to include internal tools where possible, but I think the main obstacle is finding sufficient info.
I think where this differs from Killed by Google is that Mozilla has had less consumer services that were discontinued while they had an active user base. I'm happy to include old experiments, internal tools, etc., I really enjoy digging these things up.
Thank you again, I'll take a look at some of the services you mentioned!

What's the purpose of a public website with a catchy domain that chronicles when internal-facing tools were killed (usually because they were replaced with something better)? I understand the agenda behind Killed By Google, but right now your site just leaves me scratching my head. (Disclaimer: I work for Mozilla on the ops team that ran many of these services)
