We need your help!

In order to make it a successful event, we will definitely need your help! CeBIT is a great opportunity to talk with people who know about Mozilla, Thunderbird and Firefox, but who may not be aware of our amazing organization and community. We see this as a chance to learn why people choose Firefox or Thunderbird, and hope we can evangelize why we are different in the quickly changing browser landscape.

We will have a demo station during the whole week, and we would love if you could come help out during those days. The demo point is for a maximum of 2 people at anyone time, but we are looking for 3 people each day in order to rotate when needed and give someone a well earned break.

We'd love community members and Mozilla staff to help out - it would be great to have a broad representation of both.

As mentioned, we will be conducting a small survey at the demo station and collecting data on browsing, knowledge of open source, which Mozilla products do they know about / use (without any personal information). It will be a web based survey.


If interested in helping out, please put your name below -- there is no restriction to how many days one can attend! Please just bear in mind that you may need to travel to Hannover, so thinking in blocks of consecutive days would be great.
