What?

This pull request removes removes several remaining Mozilla-branded repository, package, and support references from hubs-docs.

Changes include:

  • Updating repository links from Mozilla-owned repositories to Hubs Foundation repositories where appropriate.
  • Updating package metadata that still referenced Mozilla Mixed Reality.
  • Updating outdated Mozilla-specific support/contact references.
  • Replacing a small number of remaining Mozilla-branded strings that no longer reflect current project ownership.

Why?

The Hubs Foundation is continuing the Mozilla Branding Removal effort across Hubs-related repositories.

These references were no longer accurate and could cause confusion about project ownership, support channels, and repository locations.

Limitations

This pull request intentionally focuses on a small set of clearly outdated branding references. These ones seemed obvious enough to begin some meaningful changes.

Historical attribution, licenses, contributor information, and references to Mozilla resources that are still relevant (such as MDN documentation) were left unchanged.

More branding cleanup work may remain elsewhere in the repository. Further clarification may be needed for changing email addresses or other official domains.

Additional details or related context

This PR is part of the the ongoing Mozilla Branding Removal effort referenced in the Communication & Documentation Team roadmap and Mozilla Branding Removal Guidelines.

This PR is intended to contribute toward the existing "Remove Mozilla branding" roadmap item in the Communication & Documentation Team roadmap.

The changes focus on a small set of repository/package metadata and documentation references that still pointed to Mozilla-owned repositories, branding, or support channels.

If there is a preferred process for associating a PR with an existing roadmap item, please let me know and I'd be happy to update it accordingly.

@HussainAther There's nothing you need to do to with regard to associating PRs with roadmaps.
This is indeed on the current roadmap, so I've added the Roadmap label. Thank you!

You need to drop commit 4c6b5c0, but aside from that, it looks pretty good. I've left a few inline comments, but they should be very easy to sort out.

I believe that what was mozilla staff is actually the user and group, so I would put this as either user group or root root (which is what was shown to me when I ran bash retpack.sh).

This is what my terminal printed out:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24M Jun  4 03:16 ./.retpack/retpack.tar.gz

2. The terminal command may take several minutes to complete depending on the quantity and nature of your customization. **Do not exit the terminal until the upload process has completed.** Once successfully complete, it will return `done, reqId: <unique-ID-string>`. After a few minutes, you should see your customization on your Hub.

3. After deploying, try to create a room to verify your customizations have taken place. If you are unable to see your customizations, email [hubs-feedback@mozilla.com](mailto:hubs-feedback@mozilla.com) with the subject line `Hubs Custom Client Deployment Troubleshooting` and a description of your problem.

I would rather not have the raw email address of the Hubs Foundation here. Usually, we've been URL encoding the email address for things like this, but since this page is probably going to be either deleted or completely rewritten, I would just put in placeholder values for now (also, we probably don't want anyone emailing us for support anyway - they should go to Discord for that).

We've been using the GitHub URL for stuff like this, rather than Hubs Foundation deployments of the GitHub repos.
