Rmerkley: /* 4. Create a culture of executional excellence */

__NOTOC__
== Context ==
 
'''Vision:''' Build a generation of webmakers 
'''Long term goal:''' Move tens of millions of people from ''using'' the web to ''making'' the web. 

== Overarching goal for 2013 ==

[write this]

== Top level goals ==

Product: in 2013 we want Mozilla Webmaker to be: 
 
1. A popular way to make and remix web content 
2. Levels up your web skills every time you make something 
3. Powered by a global community of makers and mentors 
 
Ops: in order for this vision of Webmaker to succeed we need to: 
 
4. Create a culture of excellence (process + outcomes) 
5. Tee up solid long term funding and resource base 
6. Establish a regular flow of new product ideas 

== Product goals plus concrete objectives ==

''objectives = short term things we will do to pursue a goal, last less than a year''

=== 1. A popular way to make and remix web content ===
 
Metric: # of makers 
 
1.1 Visitors turned into makers (more than two visits post sign up) 
1.2 Personal gallery + social media let you share and showcase what you made 
1.3 Steady flow of starter projects based on popular internet topics and themes 
1.4 Webmaker.org becomes a way for finding and celebrating best 'makes' 
1.5 Simple way to pull your existing content in from mobile and social networks 

=== 2. Levels up web skills every time you make something ===
 
Metric: # of badges issued 
 
2.1 Full set of Webmaker badges covering all the skills we care about 
2.2 Playlists,  badge pathways and user dashboards making learning easier 
Tools and projects to learn javascript added to Webmaker.org 
Partners build our tools and badges into their sites, includes skills we don't teach 
L10N added as way to bring learninig and content to more people 

=== 3. Powered by a global community of makers and mentors ===
 
Metric: # of mentors 
 
3.1 Makers turned into mentors (organize 2+ events or volunteer online) 
3.2 Grassroots instructor community established,  like a year round summer code party 
3.3 Tools and support to help community make great content and learning projects 
3.4 Tools that make it easy to find local  teachers / events / clubs online 
3.5 More + better mentor how to guides: step by step guides for local organizing 

== Ops goals plus concrete objectives ==

''objectives = short term things we will do to pursue a goal, last less than a year''

=== 4. Create a culture of executional excellence ===
 
Metric: # better conversions and user stickyness 
 
4.1 Regular ship cycle for Webmaker tools and content (the train) 
4.2 Project / product management system used by all MoFos 
4.3 Rigorous culture of testing, iteration and refinement based on metrics 
4.4 We make stuff people like: it's beautiful and compelling 

=== 5. Tee up solid long term funding and resource base ===
 
Metric: ratio of restricted to unrestricted funds 
 
5.1 Webmaker message successful w/ individual donors, $1M/in 2013 
5.2 First major gifts landed, most likely going to Hive in London and NYC 
5.3 Grants portfolio balanced, more big grants directly tied to Webmaker 

===6. Establish a regular flow of new product ideas===
 
Metric: ??? 
 
6.1 Prototype hackable games for learning 
6.2 Explore mobile webmaking beyond simple content capture 
6.3 Establish a culture and process for new ideas getting into product (Hive) 

==Planning Schedule==

'''Nov 20'''

* Outline process / top goals on Webmaker call

'''Nov 21'''
* Call with expanded management team

'''Nov 26'''
* 1st review of straw man budget

'''Nov 27-28'''
* Management team work sprint (Toronto)

'''Nov 30'''
* Roadmaps for each goal
* Key hire job descriptions written up
* 2nd review of budget

'''Dec 4 '''

* Share proposed plans w/ Webmaker call for feedback

'''Dec 5'''
* Lock board presentation re: strategy deck and budget

'''Dec 10'''
* Ship strategy deck and budget to board

'''Dec 12'''
* Board meeting

'''Dec 18'''
* Share outcomes of board meeting on Webmaker call

== Invite Text ==

Mozilla is building an Open Internet Preservation Society – an informal super-team of twenty of the smartest people we can find. We're huge fans of you and your work, and we'd like to invite you to take part.

On November 9th in London, this group will start a global conversation about how the decisions we make about the Internet today will shape the society we live in 25 or 50 years in the future. Hosted by Joi Ito from the MIT Media Lab and Mitchell Baker from Mozilla, the initial conversation will dive into scenarios like:

* What if we end up with two internets: one fast and unbounded, another with limited capabilities?
* How does society change if Internet communities become formidable political entities?
* Or, what happens if sovereign nations take control of the internet and divide it up?
* What does a world where big data and ubiquitous sensors shape social behavior look like?
* What does the world with billions more coders and makers look like?

While the scenarios we’ll look at will be fictional, the stakes are big and the implications are real. We believe we need a conversation about the future if we want to design products, education and public policy that will create a connected society that we all want to live in.

We're attacking this questions from every level: from the fate of funny cat videos online to the biggest issues around civic infrastructure and governance. To do so, we're pulling out all the stops to bring together a unique group of participants who will be capable of providing a variety of perspectives for an honest, wide-ranging, and big picture day of discussion. We'd be thrilled to have you join us. It's going to be a great group - the confirmed attendees include Yochai Benkler from the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, Brewster Kahle from Internet Archive, and science fiction author Charlie Stross.

Please let us know by September 19th if you'd like to attend by dropping an e-mail to me! I'm sort of the logistics brain on the event and can get your travel arrangements together as well as answer any questions that you might have.

Excited,
Tim

== Authors ==
Story drafts due Oct 8, finals due Oct 22

* Cory Doctorow -- [[File:Doctorow_V2.pdf]]
* Hannu Rajaniemi
* Daniel Suarez

== Designs ==
We have a contract designer putting together the program and other materials for this. She's working with Chris Appleton.

* Initial Design -- [[File:OIPS.pdf]]

== Photos / Bios ==
As of 10/3/12 - we're starting to get these in, Tim is uploading them to this page as they come up: [[OIPS Photos and Bios]]

== What Happens Next? ==
We want this to be the beginning of the conversation. We're looking for ways to extend the scenario discussions beyond this event into our global community. That could mean in-person sessions at events like MozCamps, or more online discussions.

TOP QUESTIONS

Audience and Vision (Mark and Ryan)

*What is the core mission statement or elevator pitch? What is the primary utility? How are we trying to differentiate ourselves?
*What is the target demographic? Who are we focusing on? Skill level, age, goals (e.g., If someone just wants to learn to code, do they belong at webmaker?) Where will the these users come from? New engagement or from other sites?
*Are the tools for learning and lightweight making or for consumer-grade production? Do we have to support both? CAN we support both?
*Are we trying to support people from novice to advanced? If so, how can we do that? How can we provide learning pathways for webmaking skills that are not covered by our tools?

Roadmap and Product Scope (Erin and Chris)

*What's in and what's out? What are we explicitly not doing? What are we de-prioritizing? What is webmaker not for (e.g., hosting, business solutions, advanced programming, etc.)?
*Where does mobile fit into this, if at all? Hackable games? Thimble.js? What do we want to pilot in 2013?
*Are we primarily building a self-directed and peer supported experience online or an experience meant for face to face events? How do the two things complement each other? How do we each into the other? Should we be prioritizing different features to support self-directed learning and peer-support?
*Metrics: What are our measures of success? What methods can we use to see how we're doing? What are we tracking now? What do we want to track?

Participation (Gunner and Chris)

*How do potential contributors or participants figure out where they fit into webmaker? What are the access points/on ramps? What is the value proposition? How do we incent, encourage, and reward them? What does the architecture of participation look like?
*How does this become a Big Tent? How are partners plugging in/extending webmaker?
*Localization, WTF? How much do we value localization? Where is it on the priority list?

Stuff We Ship Ops (David)

*What is our QA strategy for the products we are shipping for MozFest and beyond?
*Bug tracking, WTF?

Core Webmaker Product (testing our thesis and products) (Erin)

TOP QUESTIONS
Audience and Vision (Mark and Ryan)

*What is the core mission statement or elevator pitch? What is the primary utility? How are we trying to differentiate ourselves?
*What is the target demographic? Who are we focusing on? Skill level, age, goals (e.g., If someone just wants to learn to code, do they belong at webmaker?) Where will the these users come from? New engagement or from other sites?
*Are the tools for learning and lightweight making or for consumer-grade production? Do we have to support both? CAN we support both?
*Are we trying to support people from novice to advanced? If so, how can we do that? How can we provide learning pathways for webmaking skills that are not covered by our tools?

Roadmap and Product Scope (Erin and Chris)

*What's in and what's out? What are we explicitly not doing? What are we de-prioritizing? What is webmaker not for (e.g., hosting, business solutions, advanced programming, etc.)?
*Where does mobile fit into this, if at all? Hackable games? Thimble.js? What do we want to pilot in 2013?
*Are we primarily building a self-directed and peer supported experience online or an experience meant for face to face events? How do the two things complement each other? How do we each into the other? Should we be prioritizing different features to support self-directed learning and peer-support?
*Metrics: What are our measures of success? What methods can we use to see how we're doing? What are we tracking now? What do we want to track?

Participation (Gunner and Chris)

*How do potential contributors or participants figure out where they fit into webmaker? What are the access points/on ramps? What is the value proposition? How do we incent, encourage, and reward them? What does the architecture of participation look like?
*How does this become a Big Tent? How are partners plugging in/extending webmaker?
*Localization, WTF? How much do we value localization? Where is it on the priority list?

Stuff We Ship Ops (David)

*What is our QA strategy for the products we are shipping for MozFest and beyond?
*Bug tracking, WTF?

Rmerkley:

*Opening circle. 
*Photographer here to do headshots & group photo. 
*MozFest: where it came from and where it's going. 
Core Webmaker Product (testing our thesis and products) (Erin)

=== Audience and Vision (Mark and Ryan)===

*What is the core mission statement or elevator pitch? What is the primary utility? How are we trying to differentiate ourselves?
*What is the target demographic? Who are we focusing on? Skill level, age, goals (e.g., If someone just wants to learn to code, do they belong at webmaker?) Where will the these users come from? New engagement or from other sites?
*Are the tools for learning and lightweight making or for consumer-grade production? Do we have to support both? CAN we support both?
*Are we trying to support people from novice to advanced? If so, how can we do that? How can we provide learning pathways for webmaking skills that are not covered by our tools?

===Roadmap and Product Scope (Erin and Chris)===

*What's in and what's out? What are we explicitly not doing? What are we de-prioritizing? What is webmaker not for (e.g., hosting, business solutions, advanced programming, etc.)?
*Where does mobile fit into this, if at all? Hackable games? Thimble.js? What do we want to pilot in 2013?
*Are we primarily building a self-directed and peer supported experience online or an experience meant for face to face events? How do the two things complement each other? How do we each into the other? Should we be prioritizing different features to support self-directed learning and peer-support?
*Metrics: What are our measures of success? What methods can we use to see how we're doing? What are we tracking now? What do we want to track?

===Participation (Gunner and Chris)===

*How do potential contributors or participants figure out where they fit into webmaker? What are the access points/on ramps? What is the value proposition? How do we incent, encourage, and reward them? What does the architecture of participation look like?
*How does this become a Big Tent? How are partners plugging in/extending webmaker?
*Localization, WTF? How much do we value localization? Where is it on the priority list?

===Stuff We Ship Ops (David)===

*What is our QA strategy for the products we are shipping for MozFest and beyond?
*Bug tracking, WTF?

*MozFest: where it came from and where it's going. 
Core Webmaker Product (testing our thesis and products) (Erin)

= Audience and Vision (Mark and Ryan)=

*What is the core mission statement or elevator pitch? What is the primary utility? How are we trying to differentiate ourselves?
*What is the target demographic? Who are we focusing on? Skill level, age, goals (e.g., If someone just wants to learn to code, do they belong at webmaker?) Where will the these users come from? New engagement or from other sites?
*Are the tools for learning and lightweight making or for consumer-grade production? Do we have to support both? CAN we support both?
*Are we trying to support people from novice to advanced? If so, how can we do that? How can we provide learning pathways for webmaking skills that are not covered by our tools?

=Roadmap and Product Scope (Erin and Chris)=

*What's in and what's out? What are we explicitly not doing? What are we de-prioritizing? What is webmaker not for (e.g., hosting, business solutions, advanced programming, etc.)?
*Where does mobile fit into this, if at all? Hackable games? Thimble.js? What do we want to pilot in 2013?
*Are we primarily building a self-directed and peer supported experience online or an experience meant for face to face events? How do the two things complement each other? How do we each into the other? Should we be prioritizing different features to support self-directed learning and peer-support?
*Metrics: What are our measures of success? What methods can we use to see how we're doing? What are we tracking now? What do we want to track?

=Participation (Gunner and Chris)=

*How do potential contributors or participants figure out where they fit into webmaker? What are the access points/on ramps? What is the value proposition? How do we incent, encourage, and reward them? What does the architecture of participation look like?
*How does this become a Big Tent? How are partners plugging in/extending webmaker?
*Localization, WTF? How much do we value localization? Where is it on the priority list?

=Stuff We Ship Ops (David)=

*What is our QA strategy for the products we are shipping for MozFest and beyond?
*Bug tracking, WTF?

*How do potential contributors or participants figure out where they fit into webmaker? What are the access points/on ramps? What is the value proposition? How do we incent, encourage, and reward them? What does the architecture of participation look like?
*How does this become a Big Tent? How are partners plugging in/extending webmaker?
*Localization, WTF? How much do we value localization? Where is it on the priority list?

==Stuff We Ship Ops (David)==

*What is our QA strategy for the products we are shipping for MozFest and beyond?
*Bug tracking, WTF?

==Strawman Webmaker Plan for 2013==
OR "Here is Where We Want to be in a Year"

1. Webmaker is a "complete offering", defined as:

* Tools oriented towards making + learning
* Improved + unified IA/UX/UI/branding
* Tools that support javascript (Thimble?)
* Goggles (or goggles elements) integration in Thimble and Popcorn
* Webmaker badges - created by Mozilla + others
* User accounts w/ dashboard/gallery/sharing
* Meaningful volunteer contribution teams
* Projects - more, more compelling, more frequently released, more authors

2. Top tier user experience for making flowing seamlessly into contribution

* Systems in place for scale: User-creation gallery w/ sharing, project submission infrastructure, l10n back-end and peer support
* Reposition our core events as collaborative maker/instructor/contributor events, leaving people to run smaller peer learning and live support events on their own.

3. Solve peer support

* Review models and define strategy
* Build/Buy infrastructure/platform (e.g., Stack Exchange, Army of Awesome)
* Robust offering for assessment with badges, assessment, mentoring

4. Broader reach - 10x users and contributors

* Uplevel self-directed making with active peer support in the product so people can find their way into making at webmaker.org. This is a major use case we will build for throughout the product.
* Consistent consumer marketing and campaigns
* Maximize use of Fx channels

=Goals=

===1. Biggest goal: connect as a team.===

We all did great work on our own projects in 2011. Now we need to snap these projects -- and ourselves -- into something bigger.

This means understanding each other's projects better and working as a team. And, more concretely: it means working on shared priorities (see below).

'''If all we do in Toronto is get better at this, we'll be in good shape.'''

===2. Also: make early progress on shared 2012 goals.===

As a tangible starting point, we want to produce five things *together* in Toronto:
* a. Outline for generic hactivity kit all programs can use.
* b. User stories + Q1 2012 roadmap for Popcornmaker.
* c. Event plans for Hive, MoJo, Film, hactivity kit and popcornmaker built in.
* d. Paper prototype and user stories for '''make.mozilla.org''' + program pages.
* e. Plan for simple Mozilla badge offering for web makers.
'''We'll dedicate our mornings to this''' as a way to drive early progress on some of our ''team-wide'' [http://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/2012plans 2012 goals].

===3. And: work on your core projects, solidify individual goals.===

We also want to make progress on all of our core projects, things like:
* Clarifying user stories and roadmaps that guide your work.
* Making sure others in the team understand -- and feedback -- on your work.
* Honing the message and communications around your project.
With this in mind, '''afternoons are all open as working sessions''' available for you to schedule the people you need to work with most.

=== Shared Q1 2012 Goals===

As context for the meeting, here are five Q1 2012 goals that the whole team should be thinking about:

* a. Learning: Build a generic hacktivity kit that is useful for all of our programs.
* b. Software: PopcornMaker 0.x = good enough for Mozilla workshops.
* c. All programs running web making events, integrate Hacktivity Kit + PopcornMaker.
* d. MVP version of make.mozilla.org live, basic pages for Hive, MoJo, Film.
* e. Simple way to dogfood Mozilla badges + open badges with our programs.

These have been drawn by the bigger picture [http://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/2012plans 2012 year long goals] and used to frame to deliverables listed in item #2 above.

=Logistics=

'''Location''': Everything is happening at the Mozilla Toronto office
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/contact.html#map-canada-toronto

===Hotels===

'''The Gladstone Hotel''' (http://www.gladstonehotel.com/hotel)
Simply provide them with your name to check in. They will have a welcome package for you which will have a weekly metropass, among other delights.

===Transportation===

'''From the airport:''' you should take a taxi. For those of you who are on same flights or arrive at similar times, Mari will get in touch and make sure you look for each other and travel together.

'''To the airport:''' Mari will arrange for your taxi back to the airport by getting in touch and finding out what time you would like to leave.

'''Within Toronto:''' in your welcome pack at the hotel, there is a weekly metropass for the TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) - it's good on all buses, streetcars, and subways.

'''To and from the hotel and office (http://g.co/maps/2zsrz):''' You will take the 501 streetcar eastbound on Queen St. This means you'll need to leave the hotel and wait at the stop across the street (they come often in the morning. If one goes by and it's very full, you won't wait too long for another.). Ride the streetcar for about 10 minutes and get off at the stop called Spadina, take a right and walk 2 blocks and you'll get to Adelaide St. The office is at 366 Adelaide West, 5th floor (this walk should only take about 5 minutes). Your passcards will work on one door and there's a keycode for the other door (1472*).

===Fitness===

*Gladstone hotel comes with free pass to 99 Sudbury gym.
*'''Swimming Pool''' There is one near the hotel and one halfway between the hotel and the office. Be sure to check schedules under drop in programs.

*'''Running''' club in the morning? Totally doable! just bring winter running gear, ie breathable long underwear. Mozilla Toronto office is equipped with showers and towel service.

=Sessions still needing a home?=

These are sessions that were suggested in the original etherpad that don't yet seem to be on the program anywhere. If they were proposed by you and you still want to do, please through into one of the open afternoon sessions.

Ride the streetcar for about 10 minutes and get off at the stop called Spadina, take a right and walk 2 blocks and you'll get to Adelaide St. The office is at 366 Adelaide West, 5th floor (this walk should only take about 5 minutes). Your passcards will work on one door and there's a keycode for the other door (1472*).

===Fitness===

*Gladstone hotel comes with free pass to 99 Sudbury gym.
*'''Swimming Pool''' There is one near the hotel and one halfway between the hotel and the office. Be sure to check schedules under drop in programs.

Drumbeat/Festival2011

2011-04-06T16:36:33Z

Rmerkley: /* Vision */

__NOTOC__
'''Mozilla Drumbeat 2011:''' 
'''Media, Freedom and the Web''' 

''Get your by-line on the future of media.''

A gathering of smart people using the web 
to bend, hack and reinvent media.

''Tentative: late October 2011 in London UK.'' 
''Still in early planning. Subject to change.'' 
''Alternate venue: Berlin.''

==Vision==

It seems pretty obvious now: '''the bendable, hackable, remixable nature of the web has dramatically changed the media landscape.''' Television. Radio. News. Comics. Music. Books. All have been engulfed by the technology and culture of the internet. Or, as grand media meister McLuhan put it: tv, radio, books, etc. have become the content of the web.

So here is the question: '''what do we want this webified media landscape to look like when it grows up?''' Keyboard Cat or Hollywood? Al Jazeera or the evening newshour? Punk rock or big labels? If you make media, build the web or both, you've got a say in this. The web is lego. You can build whatever nifty, fun, creative, innovative version of the media future you like.

Which is exactly the point of this year's Mozilla Drumbeat Festival: to gather smart people using the web to bend, hack and reinvent the media. We'll spend three days throwing down '''design jams, hackfests, writing workshops, tech teach ins, science fairs and parties that pull the best of modern web technology and technique into the world of media making.''' Whether you're a web geek who makes media or a media nerd who love the web, this is an event you shouldn't miss.

==Goals==
#'''Get more media people thinking like the web.''' Promote the idea that the web as raw material: lego you can use to invent the future of media.
#'''Run a three day accelerator.''' Focus and accelerate Mozilla, MoJo and partner web media projects. Use design jams, hackfests, etc. to recruit new people and move ahead fast.
#'''Connect geeks from media orgs w/ the latest web tech.''' Get people working on web and digital in large media orgs excited and innovating using HTML5, web apps, etc.
#'''Lend a hand. Promote open tech.''' Offer up Mozilla and others doing open tech as a helping hand for geeks working in tv, radio, news and other media. Build a community.

==What will happen at Media, Freedom and the Web?==

Some of the sessions / spaces we're thinking about running include:

*HTML5 Wizardy workshops and throw downs
**Contest
**Stuff to do when you get back to the office
*Kill your iPhone App. Develop a web app in feal time.
*Design Jams
**Protecting Sources -- tools for privacy
**Beyond Commenting
**Easy Data Viz
**Designing for an Info-overloaded readership
*Story of the Web
**Mash and create media to explain the web
**State of Media, Freedom, and the Web "book"
*Workshopping Little Brother
**Butter, WebGL, Blender, Story Boarding
*MoJo Hackfest by winning fellows
**HTML5
**Web Apps
**Mobile
**Data Journalism
*Prototype School of Webcraft courses for media industry
*Butter + Hackasaurus
*Media-hacking with kids. Field trip!
*Money hacking for media creation
**How to get money in small ways
**Sessions on setting up web-driven funding tools
*Science Fair
**Massive showcase of projects and tools

==Who should come to Media, Freedom and the Web?==

Our biggest priority: bringing out '''web geeks who work in the media industry'''. This group needs better access to cutting edge tech, space to innovate and each other. The Drumbeat Festival will offer all of that.

Who should come?

JoinMozilla/FAQ

2011-03-25T23:31:05Z

Rmerkley:

'''What is Join Mozilla?''' 
Join Mozilla is a simple program to help millions of people easily support and keep abreast of Mozilla and the open web. A small donation gives people a way to support our cause by helping fund projects that make the web better. We hope it will build stronger relationships with our users, and create a community of advocates for the web over time.

'''Who is Join Mozilla for?''' 
Anyone can join Mozilla, but the program was designed to reach out to the 400 million users of Firefox to give them a clear and simple way to show their support and engage with Mozilla.

'''What is the purpose of the program?''' 
The purpose of the program is to a) give people a channel to show their support and b) build a massive community who will support the cause of an open web over the long haul. We also want to increase the number of grants, projects and scholarships we give out to support innovation on the web. Small contributions from supporters will help us do this.

'''Are you asking me to pay for Firefox?''' 
No. We strongly believe that all of Mozilla’s products should be available at zero cost to everyone in the world. That’s a cornerstone value for us, and one we will never compromise.

'''What will people get when they Join Mozilla?''' 
By Joining Mozilla, people are giving their support to the community of users, advocates, and contributors who build Firefox every day. They are going beyond installing Firefox and taking a more active role in helping to build a better web. In addition, supporterss will receive:

* A great feeling of knowing they have supported Mozilla and our work
* Monthly newsletter that summarizes info from across Mozilla and the web
* Help finding ways to get more deeply involved in Mozilla (if that's what they want)
* Timely highlights from places like Planet Mozilla so they can be among the first to tell their friends about our latest projects

'''How will we help people who join feel like they 'belong'?''' 
Everyone who Joins Mozilla will receive a welcome letter, and is invited to "Join the Mozilla". They receive a certificate and card, and have the opportunity to purchase Mozilla-branded items to show their support in real life.

'''Will Join Mozilla be available in multiple languages?''' 
Initially, we will launch Join Mozilla in English and German. The plan is to launch as many languages and locales as we can support over time. The first languages we're using meet several criteria: there is a strong base of Firefox users, we have a strong localization community to support future localization of content for the Join Mozilla program and we can offer Join Mozilla support in that language. To localize Join Mozilla, we'll need help from our community to translate the dictionary of terms used on the site so it can be uploaded to our vendor's system for secure donations.

'''What is the timeline for launching this program?''' 
The program launched in beta on March 11, 2011. We are targeting the full launch of the program for the second week of May, 2011.

'''How many people do you expect will join?''' 
In the first year, we hope to sign up between 400,000 and one million new supporters.

'''Where does the money go?''' 
Join Mozilla funds go to grants and projects. They help us create new technologies, spread new ideas, and inspire innovation across the web. In 2010, we put $500,000 towards Drumbeat grants and projects. We plan to grow this at least by 4x in 2011, in part with funds from Join Mozilla. If Join Mozilla is successful, we will grow this even further in future years -- both expanding the amount of money and growing the scope of what we support.

'''What % of my donation will be used for grants and projects?''' 
Our target is to have 100% of supporter contributions go towards grants and programs by year two, and also to top this up with additional internal funds from Mozilla. During year one, we can guarantee that at least 80% of supporter contributions will go to grants and programs. A small amount will be set aside to cover program outreach and community engagement.

'''What is Mozilla Foundation? Are you a non-profit organization?''' 
By "Joining Mozilla" you are supporting the work of Mozilla Foundation, a global non-profit organization with headquarters in California. Mozilla Foundation serves as an overall umbrella for the work of the Mozilla project, runs programs like [http://www.drumbeat.org/projects Drumbeat] and provides small [http://www.mozilla.org/grants/ grants] to projects that advance the cause of an open web. Mozilla Foundation wholly owns two subsidiary organizations charged with making Firefox and Thunderbird.

'''$5 isn't much money. Why not just run a more traditional fundraising campaign?''' 
We are striking a balance. $5 isn't a lot - so anyone can raise their hand to say 'I want to be a part of this'. But if we are as successful at building a community of millions of supporters, we will be able to make significant grants to support the open web. Also, we hope that making an investment in Mozilla, even a small one, will help people feel a stronger connection with us.

'''Will the Join Mozilla fee be the same for every country / region?''' 
We haven't decided this yet. For the launch period, the fee will be $5 USD, no matter where people live. For the majority of Firefox users, that is a reasonable contribution to ask for to support our work. However, we may add variable fees or a sliding scale over time to accommodate circumstances in different parts of the world.

'''Won't you lose a lot of money for processing such a small donation?''' 
The individual processing cost is about 3% — or 15 cents — per transaction, which is very reasonable.

'''Why not focus on driving volunteers and contributors? Isn't that what really builds Mozilla?''' 
We are continuing to seek new volunteers and contributors and will be dedicating even more resources to this in 2011. We are also continuing to run support programs for active Mozilla contributors, with new programs coming on line in the very near future. While the primary purpose of Join Mozilla is not to attract new contributors, we hope that it will eventually become a pathway for more people to actively contribute to various Mozilla projects.

'''What is the difference between a supporter and a contributor?''' 
Contributors are individuals that champion and contribute time and skill to the Mozilla project. Our global community of contributors do everything from helping code Firefox to testing, localizing and marketing it in region, to leading and participating in Mozilla Drumbeat projects, to creating Firefox add-ons and much more. They are the heart of the Mozilla project. Supporters, on the other hand, are seeking a simpler way to say 'I'm behind this. It's important to me.' We hope that many people who join as supporters will become more active contributors over time.

'''I already think of myself as a Mozillian. Can I still call myself a Mozillian if I don't pay $5?''' 
No one has to pay to call themselves a Mozillian — that terms belongs to the community of contributors, supporters, and advocates who help build Mozilla every day. The Join Mozilla program won’t change that.

'''Do contributors have to pay to Join Mozilla?''' 
Remember this program is designed primarily to engage Firefox end users, and not our contributors. However, we're looking at ways we can easily provide complimentary access to contributors for the Join Mozilla program. Stay tuned for more details.

'''Do people who Join Mozilla play a role in governance?''' 
Join Mozilla is not a voting membership system for Mozilla. It is an affinity program for people who simply want to express their support for what we do. People who Join Mozilla gain no governance rights simply by joining. Mozilla and its projects continue to be governed by the meritocratic system described here: https://www.mozilla.org/about/governance.html.

'''How can I help?''' 
There are lots of ways you can help. As we develop the program, help us think about campaign ideas and ways to engage with new supporters. Once we launch, tell your friends, family, and co-workers about Mozilla, and the work we do to support the web. Encourage them to learn more, and to Join Mozilla. We also need help localizing the Join Mozilla program, and we'd like to see it offered to many other locales by the end of 2011.

'''Join Mozilla is a new community engagement and support program aimed primarily at Firefox users: it gives them a simple way to support our mission.'''

== Join Mozilla in 5 Bullets ==

* Over 400 million people use Firefox every day. Many of these people want to do more: to show their support and help in our efforts to build a better web.
* We need simple, fun ways for these people to connect and engage with Mozilla. Join Mozilla is a first step.
* Join Mozilla is clear, simple program where millions of people can easily support and keep abreast of Mozilla and the open web.

* Grow a bigger base to back 50k Mozillians who donate time: millions of supporters backing our community.

* Join Mozilla is NOT a replacement for our existing contributor community
** We already have programs to support Firefox and Thunderbird contributors, and plan to grow and improve them throughout 2011
** We also have programs like Mozilla Drumbeat aimed at getting new kinds of contributors and projects into Mozilla
* Caveat: we do hope that many people who express their support through Join Mozilla will eventually volunteer time or get involved in some other way
