==Sunday==
Put practically and short term:  how our values show up in the app ecosystem or social network (where the  users are now). And, in the long term, how do our values show up in big  data, internet of things and other upcoming ecosystems.
What would it  look like to  build a mobile apps and content ecosystem based literally  on the ideas  in the Nature of Mozilla? What features and marketing  approaches would  you include? How would we most effectively balance  building, teaching  and shaping markets? Where do local communities fit in as part of  building this? Can they help build a long tail app ecosystem where we  really see local diversity?
