Mozilla Foundation makes commercial move

The Mozilla Foundation announced on Wednesday that it’s creating a commercial subsidiary responsible for the development, testing and distribution of the organization’s open-source products.

The body, called the Mozilla Corporation, is wholly owned by the Mozilla Foundation and will plough all its revenue back into the foundation. Mitchell Baker, president of the Mozilla Corporation, said the foundation decided to create a commercial subsidiary, as its commercial activities were restricted through being a nonprofit organization.
