What is an Add-on Meetup?

You've seen a LOT of changes happening on AMO and lots of outreach going on. We're doing our best to fill the needs of developers and most importantly, listen to your suggestions. We're taking it a step further by getting up close and personal with developers in major cities throughout the United States via the Mozilla Add-ons U.S. Tour!

Our first stop will be New York City on August 18th where we'll discuss some of the newest initiatives going on including Collections, Contributions & more. This will be a great opportunity to meet & mingle with other add-on developers as well as pick the brains of AMO team members. Here are the details:

Who Should Attend?

  • Web developers
  • XUL developers
  • Bloggers
  • Journalists
  • People just plain curious about Firefox Add-ons

EVERYONE IS WELCOME and ENTRANCE IS FREE. If you want to attend, please make sure to RSVP.
