Agenda
MozCamp Beta is an experiment. This is the first time Mozilla is testing how to train contributors to bring in more contributors across the project.
This agenda was developed in collaboration with volunteer and paid contributors together with local community members to focus on building community and recruiting new contributors into specific pathways.
We're testing general sessions on storytelling and community building as well as breakout contribution area tracks.
Because MozCamp Beta is being held in India in anticipation of the launch of Mozilla's $25 smartphone, there's a special focus of this content on Firefox OS and engagement with the new phone. Firefox OS specific content is being developed specifically for the Indian region and this Beta event.
Most content however will be tested in India for future MozCamps, and iterated upon based on what we learn at the Beta and in subsequent results metrics and feedback.
Please join us this weekend with an open mind and experimental spirit. We are all learning!
