Hi all,
Regnard and I are going to be running a new type of event in Toronto, and
we could use everyone's input (and we'd love to see a duplicate event run
in Vancouver!)
The format is something like a Pecha Kucha night mixed with a MozFest style
Science Fair. There would be about an hour of presentations, where
individuals/teams would get 5 min to present however they like on what
they're doing with/for the Open Web. They can be looking for feedback,
hoping for collaborators, or even just promoting their business. Anything,
so long as it is related to the Open Web. The purpose of the night is to
help connect the Open Web community in Toronto, so there will be blocks of
time for socializing before and after the presentations. During that free
time people can set up Science Fair style demos for attendees to see hands
on with what's going on in our area.
The goal is to help the local community stay informed on what Mozilla is
working on, as well as making Mozilla the hub for people in Toronto working
with and for the Open Web (let's count how many types I type that in this
email!!)
I've started an etherpad based on what Regnard and I have discussed so far
- https://mozillianstoronto.etherpad.mozilla.org/openwebopenmic
We also need an employee sponsor. Mark Surman is supporting the event, but
he won't be there. As the emphasis is Open Web it would be great to have a
Foundation host.
Please jump in and let's make this happen!

Apologies, the pad is now set to public. I always forget!
