I suggest all Mozilla products should say where their profile is on the
Help>About screen. Is there a way to submit this suggestion for all
programs?

During installation, the user should be advised of what profile is being
setup and given a chance to change it.

There's a poll running now on new features in mozilla.support.firefox.
Go ahead and add your two cents.

I get "Server not found" on that site (and www.m...)
Firefox is just one program. I'm also interested in the same change to
Thunderbird and Sunbird.

you should have also told them that they can access that newsgroup on
the mozilla servers: news://news.mozilla.org

If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, after which
you'll be afraid to cough.

its not a browser link. Its a news server. It doesn't go into the
browser. It goes into your Mail/New program -- such as Thunderbird.
Click on Tools, Account Settings, and the Add Account on the bottom
left, and add the account.

Thanks. I'm getting closer. I found mozilla.dev.general on
news.mozilla.org . That seems to be the "right" place for my suggestion.

the dev is for developers only. You want the mozilla.support.firefox.
This is for support for using FF

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

I don't know what you mean by "the dev". However, I want to ask the
"developers" to spend the 5 minutes or so to show the profile name and
location on Help>About. It's really easy to do.

About 10 replies and no one still knows where the profile is
located.... Pretty sad !!!!
