MozWeekend is a framework and class for events to take on. It allows the rapid formation and planning of events focused on the bonding and creation of your community using Mozilla values as glue.

Principles

  • Mozillians is a family.
  • Segregation from paid Mozillians felt by other Mozillians can be just because they don't know the employees well.
  • Employees, Volunteers and Contractors should be collectively known as Mozillians. Employees and Contractors, as needed, can be referred to as "paid Mozillians" or "paid contributors".
  • Mozillians are the basis of our products, therefore are higher up in the hierarchy of importance.
  • Some product focus should be shifted to the bonding and building of the Mozillians Family.

Framework

With the success of Mozilla Weekend Albania - Feb 2014, which followed the principles of Mozilla Weekend, we have started developing a framework, which will be trialed by a Mozilla Weekend in London.

The framework will include things such as:

  • Template Emails to attendees
  • Branding
  • Guides on how to run an event successfully
  • Ideas for things to do
  • Tools to make the event happen
  • Information on usage of a Mozilla Space
  • How to get help

Excepted delivery for the framework is August 2014
