All-hands Status Meeting Agenda
Items in this section will be shared during the live all-hand status meeting.
Friends of Mozilla 
- Shout out to philipp, FoxShadow, michal, and mayhemer for last minute work on a release blocking bug, going back and forth between Bugzilla and (1268922) and a SUMO report. The intrepid FoxShadow and relentless crash hunter philipp did a lot of work very quickly finding regression ranges and downloading test builds to diagnose the issue and then verify the fix on release. Sending FoxShadow some Mozilla swag from the release management team.
- Thanks to Moz Tech Speakers Alex Lakatos, Elio Qoshi, Kristi Progri, Gabriel Mickso, Flaki, Jobava, & Rabimba who will be speaking to developers this week at events in London, Cluj (RO), Berlin, Budapest, Tirana (Albania), and Houston, TX. Mozilla contributors will lead our strong sponsor presence at JSConf Budapest (May 11-13), and at OSCAL (Open Source Conf Albania, May 14-15).
- Thanks to Sarah Allen and Erika Drushka for putting on a fantastic MozFest planning meetup in Berlin. It's going to be an amazing festival this year!

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.
