* We | |||
* We were | - WHAT WORKED: | ||
* Hostel in a good position - near to Ljubljana downtown, near to bus and train station, near to the venue | |||
* Venue was perfect - main room big enough and small enough; a few other rooms when we needed privacy | |||
* Equipment was fantastic, we had everything we needed, and a few more things over it | |||
* Venue was provided by open-source community, so there was an additional stimulus | |||
* New community members played amazingly well | |||
* We had experienced community members helping out, as well as an intern(myself) | |||
* Due to the lack of strict management, community members felt empowered enough to shape the event flow | |||
* Excellent participation from all community contributors | |||
* Employees(along with the ones who joined us for the dinner) were all community members, behaved as such and therefore contributed to a relaxed atmosphere | |||
* Partying wasn't pushed(say necessary), and we had a nice dinner hours (7-9) so we could get enough rest if we wanted | |||
- WHAT DIDN'T: | |||
* No swags nor promotional material(badges, stickers etc) for contributors to bring home | |||
* Only ~5 mins per community to talk about it's achievements and plans | |||
* No discussion on how each particular community will continue its work | |||
* Sandwiches for lunch are not considered a meal for Balkans people | |||
* No community business cards made for contributors | |||
* No note that laptops shouldn't be used during sessions | |||
* Thunderbird wasn't mentioned almost at all at the event | |||
- SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT: | |||
* Everything was about the community, but we kind of focused on the contributors, but not communities. We missed a strong and long brainstorming about how to build and strengthen communities, how to recognise and solve problems, how to attract more community members... | |||
* Just one session related to community promotion, which is the most important bit in getting more community members. No(or in case I missed it, very short) time spent on Marketing and engagement | |||
* We should have someone explain Mozilla's(or Mozilla Europe's) global next 2 quarters plan, to get contributors more aware of what path are we taking, so they could adjust their plans to such goals | |||
* No promotion before the event. We should plan a marketing campaign before the next event to let everyone know it's happening so they could watch the stream and presentations. Just a few blog posts before this event, as opposed to the promotion for Mozilla Balkans in Skopje | |||
* No way for participants to give feedback in real time. We should set up a wiki page, or private google doc for that(for things like: we didn't like the juice, WiFi connection was bad, chairs were not comfortable) | |||
* Not much AMAZING stuff, like Demo Wizard's demos | |||
