This stuff is pretty inspiring. I'd love to see a broader "What Can I do for the Web", though, and to Mozilla's credit there would be an awful lot of overlap!
I'm a full time JS/canvas dev, but I greatly enjoy helping others and writing tutorials, so I've spent my spare time doing just that. (At my peak I had answered more than 10% of all canvas questions ever asked on StackOverflow. I'm putting that in my resume under "poor time management".)
I had to stop SO/tut writing last June because of a book deal, but I'm very nearly done, and sites like this inspire me to return to "contributing" to the web. In a lot of ways, I can't wait.
I had considered taking some time off my job to do nothing but make JS tutorials, and try to make some "Bob Ross"-style learn to program with JS videos, update the MDN, and hold office hours in StackOverflow chat.
My "dream job" would be doing something like that full-time, maybe for a year, but I can't really afford to quit work for more-or-less charitable web stuff just yet. Someday though, probably in a couple years, I'll have the money to "buy" the time.
