MozPit: Meeting Room and Technical Presentation Schedule

Not booked yet.

Brainstorming

  1. cd should include 'Please copy and give to all your friends' on the label.
  2. If it's a LiveCD then update checks must be disabled to avoid messages.
  3. Booth duty sign up sheet. Including a "lunch grabber" role perhaps.
  4. Keep the MozPit! But, I'm torn as to whether it should be bigger or not. Keeping it smallish would help keep it interactive I think.
  5. Book a block of hotel rooms early. I don't think we get dinged if we cancel a day before.
  6. Prepare and maintain an succinct electronic LA/CSUN info kit for newcomers. Maps, bus/trolley, reasonable places to eat, facts to use at the booth etc.
  7. MozPit signup sheet with topics/tasks. e.g. "Hack on Jambu"

Tasks

Task Name Status Description Owners Notes
CD 0% A CD of A11y Firefox stuff
CSUN MozA11y Team member kit 0% Insiders info on how to "do" CSUN and represent MozA11y.
Defining 2008 MozA11y Team 30% Who is going?
Booking 0% Hotel rooms, MozPit, Hands-on lab
