Earlier today, eight (08) of the twelve (12) Pinoy ReMo’s (Mozilla Representatives) gathered at Burgoo Gateway Mall (Cubao, Quezon City) to discuss the future of the Mozilla Philippines Community over a MozCoffee (and some snacks). We decided to bring the regular MozCoffee north of the National Capital Region this time.
Present were Mozilla Philippines Community Manager Eusebio “Jun” Barrun Jr., Jean Austin Rodriguez, Kemuel Joseph Domanog, Melchor Compendio, Allan Caeg, Aaron Joshua Cajes, Faye Tandog, and Community Acting Secretary Kathleen Joyce Domanog (ReMo applicant; sister of Kemuel). Did I mentioned that it was the very first MozCoffee this year attended by Faye & Aaron? We missed these two dearly in the past MozCoffee sessions.
I cannot simply post here the exact details of the meeting, but to give you a gist of what we had discussed:
-
Team Mozilla Philippines Community will be in Leyte from 02-04 Aug 2012 for a MozTour. Check this blog post of Chor for details.
