The Meeting

Power went of a few minutes to the start of the meeting causing a slight delay in a bid to find an alternate source as we were expecting some people to join us via Skype. We had a great discussion about Mozilla and the open web and each one who came over for the meeting is eagerly waiting for the next level. A number of them where university students and will be helping with cordination of Mozilla activities in their various universities. Most of these being canditates for the student reps program who will later graduate to REMO after school. The meeting has set pace for 2012 by enlarging the community engagement team especially to very strategic points of interest like at key universities.

Every one had some lovely Mozilla swag to carry along with them on thier way back and were truly grateful for it.
