*"I'm just recovering from nearly a month of debilitating illness, so I'm not really able to lead much of anything. '''However, I'm wondering if what's needed now is an opportunity for people to affirm what they love about Mozilla, and what they *do* with and for Mozilla'''. People have spent the last few weeks trying to figure out how to be individuals. '''I would love to participate in participatory media-making that gives us a chance to be a community again'''. Thoughts? '''The idea would be to ask people to share one thing they have experienced/done/worked on with Mozilla, and then also to list two things from others that they also find inspiring'''." | |||
