(cc dev-platform and governance, followup on dev-identity)
Hi all,
After initial discussions with Brendan and Mitchell, I'm proposing a new
module, Identity Attached Services.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Modules/Other#IdentityAttachedServices
This module covers server-side code and some client-side code to
integrate into Firefox (Desktop, Android, and OS) services tied to the
user's identity. The immediate goal is to give users access to their
core browsing experience (bookmarks, tabs, passwords, apps, contacts,
and history) once the user has authenticated using Persona/BrowserID.
This is, essentially, a rethink of FX Sync with a mobile-first view,
adding important features such as backup.
Of importance: where this module overlaps with existing modules, design
input and eventual code reviews will be needed from all relevant module
owners/peers.
Initial UX and product design, as well technical prototyping, has begun,
as described:

The codename for this work is currently "MyFirefox".
I look forward to your thoughts/comments/questions!
-Ben
