Notes from Mark

  • Add in Mozilla movies that Brett is making during rest of 2010. This should be major component of the demos.
  • Need to fix framing of 'Web Made Movies' series -- needs different name / be clear that there are limited resources.
    • Also, is there a community contribution component. Make clear.
  • Need more from developer perspective? Something about building up a team / pool of developers?
  • Anything in terms of events? Don't need to list them all, but is there a major milestone or gathering in 2011?
