The
Mozilla Corporation (abbreviated
MoCo) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Mozilla Foundation that coordinates and integrates the development of
Internet-related
applications such as the
Firefox and
SeaMonkey web browsers and the
Mozilla Thunderbird email client by a global community of open-source developers, some of whom are employed by the corporation itself. The corporation also distributes and promotes these products. Unlike the
non-profit Mozilla Foundation, and the
Mozilla open source project, founded by the now defunct
Netscape Corporation, the Mozilla Corporation is a
taxable entity. The Mozilla Corporation reinvests all of its profits back into the Mozilla projects. The Mozilla Corporation's stated aim is to work towards the Mozilla Foundation's
public benefit to "promote choice and innovation on the Internet."
