In the meeting room. A chance for all those working on Mozilla a11y projects to get together, demo or explain their projects, discuss problems and hack solutions. Expect to do a short intro to yourself and your project(s), chat about it, open your laptop and have some good geeky fun. Aaron Leventhal and Michael Stewart are otherwise engaged.

Name Times attending Project or subject Time for talk
Steve Lee All day Jambu, XULRunner + python and iA2 10 mins
Peter Thiessen All Day AJAX chat component for Dojo + Fire Vox + Dojo accessibility + AJAX accessibility 10 mins

Loose Schedule

  • Monday, arrive and meet everyone
  • Tuesday, hack on code (mostly without Aaron due to IBM scheduling conflict)
  • Wednesday, hack on code and set up booth. Staff booth from 4-7 PM
  • Thursday, take turns staffing booth, attending conference, and working together
  • Friday, take turns staffing booth, attending conference, and working together
  • Saturday, last day, pack up booth, and then head to the beach (or wherever we decide for an "offsite". We can help each other digest the conference and relax at the same time.) Ideas welcome!

Marketing

We haven't organized marketing yet.

Please add ideas for booth materials:

  • CD's with useful things like docs and Fire Vox (organized by Charles Chen). We need to update http://www.mozilla.org/access/features
  • Stickers
  • Banners (what should they say?). Wonder if MoCo still has the CSUN 2006 banners where they can find them.

Please add other ideas for mob marketing etc.:

  • Give Firefox stuffies and banners that say "We support Firefox accessibility" to any other organization's booth, where they help support Firefox accessibility (GW Micro, AI Squared, Freedom Scientific, Nuance, Sun, IBM, etc.)
