They are currently collaborating in order to enhance the security & privacy of smartphone users utilizing Firefox OS (FFOS). The initiative is also open for cooperation or partnering with other organizations and projects.  In this context, one dedicated very valuable feature is built in support for OpenPGP encryption (e.g. based on the OpenPGP.js library). Anybody who is interested in contributing this functionality to FFOS is welcome to get in contact with the project.
