    Evolving Webmaker Community Calls (Matt) (10 mins)

    TLDR: these Webmaker Community calls are growing and evolving. 
    How do we scale up for success?
    Need your ideas for optimizing these calls in 2013 -- 
    in terms of audience, infrastructure and content

    • 1) AUDIENCE. Who are Webmaker community calls for?
      • Webmaker has three core audiences: 
        • 1) MAKERS 
        • 2) MENTORS 
        • 3) BUILDERS (the community building Webmaker)
      • These calls are primarily intended for BUILDERS and MENTORS
    • INFRASTRUCTURE
      • What are the TOOLS we need to make these calls run smoothly? 
        • 1) Reliable audio. Must-have. Killer functionality: mute all lines. 
        • 2) Interactive agenda + easy chat.
          • Back in the day, switching from wiki to etherpad made HUGE difference in these calls

          • BUT: current etherpad set-up doesn't scale. How do we make it more stable?
            • Important context:
              • According to @dascher: Mozilla is looking at implementing an etherpad replacement (based on etherpadlite). Timelines for this? Next steps?
              • Should MoFo run and maintain *our own* instance of Etherpad Lite?  Would that help?
              • What other tools exist? What are examples of how other calls do it?
                • Q: short term: what are our immediate next steps on making Etherpad more stable?



                • Q: long term: can Etherpad scale to meet our needs for 75+ / 100+ 200+ / people? What other set-ups should we consider?





        • 3) Screen sharing. Not essential, but nice to have. Want to show off killer DEMOS and prototypes. 
          • Dirty little secret: 90% of the time we have issues with screen sharing, it's because people *don't show up early!* 
          • The Geneva Convention for Humane Treatment of AV Personnel applies: no early, no demo. 
        • Q: right now we're using WebEx, because it integrates easily with our audio. Are there other tools we should look at?





      • CONTENT
    • GENERAL QUESTIONS / SUGGESTIONS? 





    • How to Get Involved:
      • Next steps: 
        • publish your feedback as a blog post
      • Add it to a new Webmaker Community call roadmap
        • Report back on next week's call
