[[Events/MozCamp+Template|« Back to main document]]

At this point, we're only trying to reach people already passionate about the web. This is still a quite varied group. We need to create a framework with a buffet of topics and corresponding materials so that local MozCamp+ organizers can cater to a variety of audience mixes audience. This might include:

== Overview ==

* An intro piece on '''what is the open web and why does it matter?'''. Depending on audience, could be more presentation vs. more discussion. [http://commonspace.wordpress.com/2008/08/25/cape-town-rebooting-the-open-everything-intro/ Something similar] emerged for the 'open everything' events Mark was a part of. People in many cities used similar slides, and shared audio of their talks. Also participants had a chance to talk w/ each other about the slides after the talk. ''(needs template presentation)''

* Inspiring, '''TED-like talk about where the open web is headed, and what the threats are'''. This could look at emerging big issues like mobile and data. This is the 'update' mentioned in the goals above.

* 5 minute speedgeek / '''lightning presentations demoing cool new stuff from Mozilla and open web projects'''. Everything from Firefox to new stuff from Labs to audience specific add on packs (like F-Y-FF), platform projects like Miro ... and maybe even local open source or open web projects (e.g. Creative Commons, Electronic Frontier Foundation).''(needs template explaining how to organize)''

* '''Hands on workshops''' by whatever Mozilla community people are around. Localization. Marketing. Manifesto. Add on development. Also, similar hands on workshops by other local people and projects. Embedding CC metadata. Running online participatory projects. An so on.

* Broader talks about what happens on the web and how Joe Average can benefit from it. What are website aggregators, RSS, wikis, social networks, cloud text editors etc. Also, educate people on how to use Internet safely and wisely. What is phishing and how to avoid it. What is vendor lock in and how to avoid it. What are data format locks and how to escape them. ''(may need templates, but lower priority)''

* Discussions or workshops on '''how to promote these benefits of the open web locally'''. Working w/ city council. Working w/ schools. Evangelizing to the media. This might result in other events or evangelism that participants take out to a broader audience. ''(will need to make sure these happen in some early events, and then blog and document so others get the idea)''

* '''Small sprints or hands on projects with specific local relevance''', like localizing the Manifesto, developing an add on or coming up with an open web strategy for a local NGO, school or government department. Need the right local people around to make this happen. ''(could template or have example sprints organized)''

* A strong party and social component where people just get to know each other and have fun.

'''We also need to merge in the Mozilla Labs Concept Series stuff.''' Need specific ideas from Aza and Atul on this.
