"And Mozilla has the billions to make it rock." Really? What do you base that statement on?

  They have a contract with Google that guarantees them $1B over 3 years. http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/google-paying-mozilla-300-million-per-year-for-search-deal/65921 http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/google-paying-mozilla-300-mill...

    1B is very little. I would focus on your other point: So when resources are diverted away while there's still work to do, you should see red flags and look for better focus right away.

      I'm not sure 1B is very little - it's thousands of programmer-years. It is weird to characterize 1B over 3 years as "billions" unless there are substantial funds coming from other sources.

        That's the vast majority of Mozilla's income, you can check the publicly-available financials. It's small potatoes compared to the companies Mozilla competes against: Google, Apple, Microsoft.
