This might be a new low point for HN discourse regarding Firefox. Wow.
No, you can't maintain an entire modern browser (25 million lines of code) with 6 people.
You probably can't even maintain a complete multi-architecture, JIT-enabled Javascript engine with 6 people. Or GPU-accelerated rendering that works across thousands of hardware / software combinations. Much less that plus all the other things a browser has to do.
