2008 Mozilla Summit
The 2008 Mozilla Summit is an invitation-only gathering of some of the most active contributors in the Mozilla community. The purpose is to discuss the future of the Mozilla Project and Firefox. If you have any questions, please email summit2008@mozilla.com.

Date & Location

The summit will take place in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada at the Westin Whistler Resort & Spa from July 28th to August 1st, 2008.

Invitees & Costs

Invitees have been selected by Mozilla community leaders and will be contacted by email during the first two weeks of May. Invitees were selected based on their contributions to Firefox 3 and the Mozilla Project over the past 18 months.

Most invitees will be fully sponsored, with Mozilla covering costs associated with travel to the summit, as well as food and lodging during the week. Mozilla may ask some invitees to seek sponsorship from their employers.

Agenda & Sessions

To be determined.

FAQ

Travel Arrangements

Registered invitees will be contacted by our travel agency to arrange travel to Vancouver International Airport (YVR). From there invitees will be taken by bus along the Sea to Sky Highway to Whistler.

Visas, Passports

Non-Canadian invitees will require a passport to travel to Canada, and invitees from some countries may require a visa. Mozilla will provide an Invitation Letter for the summit, and additional information to assist with visas as required, but the costs of obtaining a passport and visa will be the responsibility of the invitee.

What should I bring?

During the summer months, Whistler will be quite warm, with average high/low temperatures of 22°C/8°C (72°F/46°F). Dressing in layers is recommended, as is having sweaters or jackets for the evenings.
