Balkans/Events:2010/Ljubljana
Ljubljana, the beautiful capital of Slovenia, has been declared as the next location for the second in a row Mozilla Balkans inter-community meet-up. All info on this page should still be considered as DRAFT(with some minor exceptions) as we're still in the planning phase.
Overview
The second Balkans Inter-Community meet-up will take place in Ljubljana, Slovenia, the first week of December, 2010.
The event will consist of 2 parts: a public event and a contributor event.
The public event will take place in on Thursday December 2nd, and will be led by Mozilla Slovenia local community and Mozilla Staff. The aim of this presentation will be to present the Mozilla project, a preview of Firefox 4 and explain how easy it is to get involved in the project and become a contributor.
The community component of the Balkan meet-up will also take place on December 4th-5th 2010. Lead contributors from Balkan communities will be invited and sponsored by Mozilla Europe to participate in a 2-day workshop.
The aim of the workshop is to enable Mozilla communities in the Balkans to share and learn from each other's experience working on the Mozilla Project, improve collaboration in the future, and work on specific tasks, based on the 5 goals defined in the previous Balkan Meetup in Skopje and in light of the upcoming Firefox 4 release.
