Here are the slides from my talk at Linuxwochen 2009 in Vienna this past weekend (pictures). Kairo‘s talk on the Open Web proceeded mine, so I focused more on high level content on Add-ons, Labs, and Mobile. Counting all 4 of those topics together, you get a pretty good feel for where Mozilla is now [...]

Axel Hecht already wrote about it, and herein is another reminder that there will be a big Mozilla presence again in Brussels on February 7-8 for the Free and Open Source Software Developers European Meeting (FOSDEM).

Add-ons Takeaway from Mozilla Camp Europe 2008
on 3-Nov-2008 in Events, Lizard, Travel
I got back from the great event in Barcelona a week ago and am just finding the time to write about it. There are quite a few blog posts in the wild about what transpired (see Tristan’s post for a summary with some good linkage), so what I want to do is focus on the [...]

Paris Wrap-Up
on 24-Sep-2008 in Briks, Events, Lizard, Travel
Some random thoughts on the weekend just passed in Paris. Mozilla Addons Workshop (MAOW08) – Good venue, well equipped. The audience was spit into different perspectives but there were screens and televisions scattered around making sure every could see and hear the speakers. – I enjoyed Wladimir‘s talk. It focused less on popups (or lack [...]

In Mountain View Next Monday
on 16-Jul-2008 in Briks, Lizard, Travel
Image via Wikipedia I’ll be at the Mozilla Corp. Offices in Mountain View next Monday (21st). It’s at the front-end of a conference trail that I will write about more. The last time I visited was January 2007, not too frequent due to the the not small matter of ~10000Km distance gap. So it is [...]

Things are heating up for the summer. In no particular order, here is some news from the sunny side of the Alps. Image via Wikipedia – eLiberatica 2008 in Bucharest last week was a blast, not to mention a quality conference. It got the balance between Open Source and business just right, something many conferences [...]
