The Account Manager feature (Firefox branding TBD) is a new Firefox feature that allows automated registration, sign in, and sign out on Web sites that implement support for it.  The Account Manager team has put together a specification, still in its early stages, that Web developers would need to support to activate this feature in Firefox.
 
Since the specification is still in a fluid state, it is an excellent time to gather feedback from Web developers on whether they would support it, and if they would prefer any changes to be made to it.  Later on, priorities will shift from gathering feedback to promoting the specification to the Web at large.
 
= Goals/Strategy =
 
Thus, the evangelism goals are as follows:
 
* Understand what web developers think about the current specification proposal, and/or what changes they would like to see in it.
* Once the proposal enters an official draft stage, promote adoption of the specification.
* Work with key influencers at all stages of the plan.
* Make it clear that this not a neat experiment, it is a process for a new Firefox feature.
 
A non-goal for this evangelism push is to gather feedback on the front-end UX.
 
= Audience =
 
;Web Developers
 
The primary audience are Web developers. Large websites are known to have different requirements from small ones, so we should keep that in mind.  We need to cater to both.
 
;Key Influencers
 
This group overlaps with Web Developers.  These are thought leaders in the Web community who have a wide following by Web developers and sometimes power users.
 
Specifically, we are interested in reaching folks that focus on the identity, privacy, and security spaces.
 
= Tactics =
 
;Initial feedback phase:
 
* Technical blog posts explaining the technology and motivation.
* Tech demos/videos, going out on blog posts with screenshots, etc.
* Meet-up events.
* Online chat session/conf call for people who can't make the event.
* Newsletter blurbs (e.g., on about:hacks)
 
;Wide promotion/adoption phase:
 
Everything in the first phase, plus:
 
* Standardization process for the spec.
* Partnerships with specific sites.
* Open phone calls for devs to dial in and ask questions.
* "Adoption kit" for users to send to their favorite websites.
 
See the timeline below for a schedule of upcoming items/events.

Note, it's important to develop a cadence here.  We should strive to have something every one two weeks in order to retain peoples' attention and spread the word more effectively.
