Hi everyone!

We talked last time about some issues and challenges facing us as a
community and Rami pointed out the lack of interaction with people outside
the community (ie. fans on Facebook, followers on Twitter, readers/visitors
on the website). As part of the solution, I figured we can use
approximately the same concept as the famous "Bonjour Mozilla"
http://www.bonjourmozilla.fr/ How ?

What I mean by this is that people need to know us, to put a face on the
people behind "Arabic Mozilla", it's way easier to connect to human beings
you "know" (or you know a bit about) than to an unknown person posting
stuff on Facebook/Twitter... After all, Mozilla is all about community, and
I don't know about you but don't feel this when opening our ArabicMozilla
website.
I know we're planning to do videos (great idea Rami had), but I think it
would be more simple and it would take less time to start by this : a
picture of each one of us (except Anas of course :D), one at a time, few
lines about him/her in Arabic/English/French and his/her role in the
community... published on the website under a specific category (yet to be
named) and posted on social media channels (in a specific album for
example?).

This won't solve the problem entirely or by magic, of course, but what do
you think? I'm sure this can help us create a deeper feeling of belonging
for our community. Maybe we can even better the idea together.

Waiting for your feedback!

Regards,
Majda

P.S. Of course, the idea is not to do a copycat of Bonjour Mozilla. What
I'm talking about is a category within our website to get people
(especially in the Arabic region) to know more about us and the work we do,
and be more excited to join ;)

Simply: I Love that. I guess we can do that on http://arabicmozilla.org

We can make one or more posts with that. Actually, we can highlight a team
member every month. What do U think?

Hi again everyone, sorry to follow up on this so late, it's been a crazy period preparing for exams and all...

@Rami we should start by you, definitely not me :) I already have in mind what we'll write (or at least what I would write :)). We'll start on January and our first "Bonjour" will be an "Ahlan Rami" (or some like this).

@Sofien I love your sketches! :) Magnifiques! I like how it highlights the previous articles. +1 for this and thank you.

@Haithem Yep, I agree it should be a monthly or bi-monthly section.

Thanks everyone for your amazing feedback! Now it's time to get to work ;)

See you in few hours at the meeting!
