Introduce yourself!

Hello All,
I am Abhishek Potnis, from India. I am a Mozilla Representative and a Mozilla Code Contributor. I primarily contribute code by fixing bugs for Firefox. I have completed my Bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering from University of Mumbai, India.

I have joined the Tablet Contribution Program because I have been interested in Firefox OS ever since its inception, have been following its development, and would love to make it better and suitable for Tablets.

Hello, my name is Josh and I am from a small county in central New York. I have been volunteering for Mozilla for a couple of years now, and have migrated around a bit, contributing to SUMO, FFOS, WebDev, and User Advocacy. I joined the tablet program so that I could help endow Firefox OS Flatfish with the best user experience ever! I also will be designing a tablet interface for the word processing app Firetext.

I joined the tablet program because I am always excited to contribute my part with that and the key is always be open. My plans to get involved are to develop some cool apps, test it in order to find bugs and make it a better place to eery developer and non-developer to test it and get there feedback. This also gets into localization part as well as we are getting close to people as well they can find some bugs and report us or we may get some idea which may count in increasing popularity.

Hi all,
My name is Juan Gómez and I do belive that the WEB should be the platform so I’ve been contributing to Firefox OS project since almost the beginning. My contributions are more focused on low level layers (Gonk/Gecko/HAL) so this is where I plan to help in this new exciting challenge that Mozilla brought to us :blush:

Hello all,

My name is Justin, I’m from California. I’m a Sr. UI developer at a UX agency. By day I spend most my time on client work, encouraging engagement within open source & development communities and often run workshops on new technologies and Git workflow best practices for my team. I joined the the tablet contribution program because of Firefox OS’ connection with the open web platform and would like to help test, hack and build for Firefox OS.

I thought I’d wait until I actually get my tablet but now I replied on a different thread, so here I go… :wink:

I’m Robert Kaiser, known as “KaiRo” across the project, including IRC, and I live in Austria (Vienna at the moment).
I’ve been active in the Mozilla project for 15 years now, first as a localizer and theme designer (which I still do), then I did project management for SeaMonkey for 5 years, and 3 years ago I started working for Mozilla in the stability (crash analysis) group. Nowadays I’m part of QA as a project manager for the Stability Program and some other efforts.

I always found the idea of “Boot 2 Gecko” intriguing, which originally was started with a blank repository to “perhaps get something running on tablets first”, but rapidly evolved to the current Firefox OS and centered around phones. I’ve been using Firefox OS phones as my primary phone for almost a year now and I love it, so I’m eager to see us come full circle and get tablet support going (as well as other form factors, I bought an APC Rock, for example).

Hello guys!

I’m Diego and I’m from Venezuela, but I moved to Madrid, Spain, 4 years ago to make my Master and PhD in Computer Science in the area of Human-Computer Interaction. I’m currently living in Lugano, Switzerland, though, cause I’m doing a research stay here, but I should go back to Madrid in a couple of months to finish my doctorate. So, by day I’m a researcher but I am known to occasionally develop small web projects. I’m a lifelong learner, I’m always doing courses online on Coursera, EdX, etc. I joined the tablet program because I just LOVE Mozilla’s initiative to make mobile apps development totally open and that approach of making it all compliant with standard web technologies (HTML5, CSS3 and JS).

It’s nice to be part of the team and hopefully I’ll receive my tablet soon to start making my own contributions to this awesome project!

Cheers!

Hi there

I’m Robin, and I’m from Belgium. I have been experimenting with programming since I was 12 or 13, and lately I’ve been leaning more towards mobile and web development. I’ve also been using Linux since around that time.
Since Firefox OS is a combination of mobile and web, and is a Linux-based platform, this seemed like an interesting project to be a part of. I’m excited to get the chance to help shape this great platform!

Cheers!

Hello, I’m Saudin Dizdarevic and I’m from Bosnia. By day I play with Embedded Systems/MCUs Development Boards and electronics, but I am known to occasionally as a student of masters programme on university of Electrical engineering in Sarajevo, at the department of Automatic Control and Electronics. I joined the tablet program because I like to play with new technology stuff, report bugs, test, localise, contribute to community, experimenting, hack, analyze. Here is my blog and my work so far: sdizdarevic.com. Because tablets are expensive in Bosnia, if I get the tablet to test, it would be my own first tablet ever (i played with iPad only on my University).
