More details on the upcoming MozCamp Europe in Berlin
mercredi 5 octobre 2011. en
Do you remember my call to save the date back mid-August? So now William is calling for papers for the MozCamp EU and gives us more details.
- Dates: no changes. Still scheduled for November 12th and 13th, 2011.
- Overarching theme: "Many Voices, One Mozilla"
- The MozCamp will take place at Kalkscheune, in Berlin
- More details can be found on the EU MozCamp 2011 Wiki page, including:
- There will be 3 tracks during this event:
- Product & Technology Track
- Skills Development and Community Growth Track
- Engagement/Regionalization Track
- The Format for talks has also evolved.
If you are an engaged Mozillian, I hope you're considering attending! William will be sending the invitations this week. I'm really looking forward this event. Like I wrote earlier, Mozilla is changing. The MozCamp in Berlin will be an important moment for us as a community to discuss how we're approaching this, and what will be our respective role in the future. I hope to see you there!

Firefox leading in Europe
jeudi 6 janvier 2011. en
A recent report by StatCounter says that Firefox is now the leading browser in Europe. As always, market numbers are to be taken with a grain of salt, but it's hard to imagine a better way to start 2011, considering how small Mozilla is compared to its main competitors (Microsoft, Google and Apple). This is the result of the commitment of the Mozilla community and teams over the past decade. Very frankly, if someone told me that a non-profit organization would beat Microsoft at its own game just 5 or 6 years ago, I would have told him to quit smoking funny cigarettes ;-).
It's time to rejoice and have a drink, (after all, the Paris office is in France, so we're always ready to party and have a drink!), but let's not forget a couple of things[1]...
- We're now in a market that is more competitive than ever, where 3 players are likely to dominate the others (Firefox being one of them):
- Chrome is gaining market share and shipping new versions very quickly, along with a very aggressive marketing campaign
- Microsoft is back at work and IE9 is a very serious competitor, especially as it's bundled with Windows (as always).
- Mobile is the new frontier, and Mozilla has a card to play here, especially on Android.
In order to succeed on the desktop and the mobile spaces, there is a very simple thing to do: ship a killer version of Firefox 4 soon!
So let's enjoy the fact that we're succeeding more in Europe than we hoped for initially, but let's quickly return back to work and invest all of our energy in making an amazing Firefox 4 both on the desktop and on mobile. This is key for our future!
