Both presented the session well, the only problem was unplanned slow wifi. It was a hand on session on Webmaker open source tool.

Then came the session for Web devotees ‘ Webmaker’ by Saurabh and Kanika. She focused more on how girls, who are not from technical background, can contribute in projects like editing articles, content writing and documenting the Mozilla websites.

She also talked about the future of community with or without women. She talked of future aspects and how girls can contribute both technically and non technically to open source community like Mozilla. Next session on Introduction to WOMOZwas presented by Pushpita, Womoz community current member. I thank him especially for this hilarious introduction to seize the students who were leaving for their lectures (regular classes were going on).

As always many of us dropped their head on thinking of formal boring introduction but Bhuvnesh separated signals from noise and by just going direct got all our attention and instilled gravitas. When I met Mozilla team they were equally excited as I was to see the crowd who showed up for the event.įor your eyeball pleasure I’ve included the photos below which we could capture, along with a brief description.īhuvnesh (core member) kicked off the fiesta by the prelude session I ntroduction to FOSS and Mozilla. Our head of the Department, Tanvir Ahmad sir always supported me and even helped in arranging the seminar hall for the event. I am very thankful to our respected faculty. Her enthusiasm and interest resonated our ideas and we put all are gravitas to actually organize first Womoz event at Jamia. I contacted Pushpita FSA(Firefox Ambassador and also a Mozpacer), whom I met during one of the conferences that I attended. Being a FSA I fully utilized my position and contacts. I wanted the girls of Jamia to participate and contribute to open source. It wouldn’t have been possible if the whole community of Mozpacers and the FSAs from Jamia were not so enthusiastic and of course the students without whom we wouldn’t have been able to make it a success. Thank you all for your interest and thereby making it a success. It was the first event that was hosted for girls. It is almost a week ago when Jamia Millia Islamia graciously hosted the Mozilla WOMOZEvent at Seminar Hall of TPO.
