Firefox OS QA at FOSDEM 2016
Despite the fact I have been around the Mozilla project for some time, I never did get the opportunity to attend the FOSDEM conference. This year I was fortunate enough to not only attend, but also to present along with Ioana Chiorean at FOSDEM in the Mozilla Developer Room. And I was in good company: Johan Lorenzo and Martijn Wargers of the QA team also presented a great Automation Session on Saturday - you can see the video here.

There were several things that I observed during the 2 days of the conference. First, the Mozilla Developer Room had good crowds for most every session, and I think there were several sessions where we actually filled the room. The same can be said of the Mozilla booth, as it got very good traffic due to its positioning in the area where the keynotes were being given.
I was really impressed with all of the community who rallied to help man the doors, took shifts at the Mozilla booth and coordinated the video camera in the Developer Room. Those that worked at the booth expressed boundless enthusiasm booth as they fielded all types of questions. It really is a great feeling to see so many of contributors give their heart and soul at events such as this, and I am proud to work alongside them as we continue to promote the open web.
The dinner conversations were great, and I look forward to following up on many of the ideas discussed at dinner, including planning some hackathons in the coming months.
