Upcoming Events

Thursday, 26 March

• Speaker Series - Three waves of open source voice: how do we shape the voice landscape over the next 5 years?, with Kathy Reid
  • Time: Noon PT / 3:00pm ET / 10:00pm UT (and 6:00 AM Friday AEDT)
  • Location: Broadcast on Airmo, on Youtube, and in Hubs in VR and archived for later watching by NDAd Mozillians on Airmo.
  • Topic - Kathy Reid, former President of Linux Australia Inc, former Director of Developer Relations at Mycroft AI, and current Master of Applied Cybernetics student at the 3A Institute at Australian National University, will discuss her work exploring the assessment of open source projects, and particularly open source voice products. In this presentation, Kathy Reid outlines a three-wave approach to open source voice, highlighting where it has come from, the current state of play, and several possible arcs that it could follow. While this talk focuses on Voice, the research approach, the understandings of the ecosystem and the process of open source project assessment have relevance across Mozilla.

Speakers

The limit is 3 minutes per topic. It's like a lightning talk, but don't feel that you have to have slides in order to make a presentation. If you plan on showing a video, you need to contact the Air Mozilla team before the day of the meeting or you will be deferred to the next week. The meeting is streamed in a 4:3 format in order to allow for split screen. If your slides are 16:9 "widescreen" format, please indicate in the "Sharing" column below.
