Hello folks,
As you all might know, the Mozilla community released Firefox 3.5 a few days ago. The new browser incorporates a lot of features of the HTML 5 specification, and we consider it a leap forward for the web.
To celebrate the release, demo new features in Firefox 3.5, and discuss issues of the Open Web and standards, we are organizing an event on this Sunday, July 19th, at National College, Bandra(W) in Mumbai.
The main event will be held from 3-6PM at National College. We are actively looking for people to conduct sessions related to Firefox 3.5, HTML 5, or the Open Web. Please feel free to come up with a session and add it to http://mozcamp.in/mumbai/wiki/index.php/MCM_Sessions .
We hope to follow-up the sessions with a more informal yet focussed hack-session cum party at the CAMP Studio (close to National College).
To add some fun, there will be MozHunt, Mumbai Edition. Do check our wiki for details: http://mozcamp.in/mumbai
To RSVP attendance, please add your name on the Registration page: http://mozcamp.in/mumbai/wiki/index.php/MCM_Register
