MozBalkans event in Bucharest
I had the privilege of being able to attend the MozBalkans Regional Community meetup last weekend in Bucharest. Prior to the event, I had formulated some explicit goals for the event.
Some of the highlights for me:
Meeting new community members from that region
Introducing them to what QA is and how they can get involved
Watching fredy and Christos give a great presentation/demo of the BuddyUp App
Talking quite a bit about FX OS and Firefox Desktop
Sharing tools and other tips and tricks during the sessions
Learning more about what the SUMO and l10n teams are doing
Some of the challenges I learned in various discussions:
Some attendees had some misconceptions about QA, and did not know there were so many other things to test besides FX OS
Challenges for some countries getting Flames
Thanks to Ioana for all of her dedication and hard work - she really poured her heart and soul into planning the event and making sure we had a true Romanian experience. I believe the event was a great success and I am really looking forward to being able to participate in other events like this in the future. I left the event feeling very energized and inspired to work even more with contributors in the QA community.
