This is a Call for Volunteers for FOSDEM 2016
FOSDEM is the biggest open source event for Europe. It will take place as usual in the ULB, in Brussels on January 30-31 2016.
We have the Call for papers ongoing on this topic.
Like we did last year, we will be sponsoring some reps for travel and accommodation
As some of you already know, last year only 6 Reps were sponsored, and we are thinking on have 8 this year, but that’s under discussion, and to be confirmed.
Since we want to open the participation to Mozillians too, this year is not mandatory to be a Rep to sign up for volunteer.
The selection will be similar to the Global Gatherings approach, and very similar to what we did for Mozfest, volunteers selected will have to commit to lead a series of activities. Metrics will be improved for this year, and ideally more ideas will come for our presence.
The selection criteria will be based on:
- Proximity to Brussels
- Level of activity as Mozillian/Rep
- Experience in running a booth
- Goals for 2016
To avoid calendar conflicts, and allow more people have a chance to participate in events, we will prioritize people that won’t attend the summit in Singapore.
The form for sign-up is here: http://goo.gl/forms/Lrm8zVeHMD
DEADLINE DECEMBER 4TH 23:59 CET
We will be announcing the selected volunteers by the following week, around December 11th.
If you have any inquiry, please feel free to send me an email to franc at mozilla.com, or comment/reply in this topic.
Best regards,
