Today, I have the great pleasure of announcing Mozilla Camp Europe, a large two-day Mozilla conference to be held in Barcelona on the weekend of October 25-26, 2008. The aim of the event is to bring together Mozillians (both staff and community), from 3 main areas : Development, Localization (L10n) and QA. This is a special event for us, as this will be the first time we have held such a large Mozilla only event with our community members from across Europe. Throughout the weekend we want to put a special emphasis on Mozilla in Europe.

The event will be held at Citilab in Barcelona (a big hat tip to Mozilla Hispano Toni Hermoso of Softcatalà and Alina of Mozilla.ro for helping us find the perfect venue!), and we hope to have enough places to invite 150 community members from across Europe. I've started a Mozilla Camp Europe wiki page, and here you can find early information on a tentative schedule, tracks and a suggested focus on Dev. We are currently working on the final program of sessions and tracks with your input, and expect to have this nailed down further by early September.

With regard to participation, as mentioned, we believe we can invite and sponsor a maximum of 150 participants. Additionally, we do expect there will be the extra possibility to open the event up to a wider audience, however, costs for these extra places will not be covered. As soon as we have more information on this, i'll blog about it and update the wiki. Stay tuned !

In the meantime, please check out the wiki and don't hesitate to drop me a line with any suggestions you may have to help us make this conference a big success !

Fins després !
