Hello, SUMO Nation!
June is officially over! Well, almost. How was your first proper summer month? Also, have you seen the new Connected Devices blog already? How about CodeMoji? If you have, don’t forget to mention this to your friends who may have missed the news… Speaking of news – here we go!
Welcome, new contributors!
Most recent SUMO Community meeting
- You can read the notes here and see the video at AirMozilla.
The next SUMO Community meeting…
- …is happening on the 6th of July!
- If you want to add a discussion topic to the upcoming meeting agenda:
- Start a thread in the Community Forums, so that everyone in the community can see what will be discussed and voice their opinion here before Wednesday (this will make it easier to have an efficient meeting).
- Please do so as soon as you can before the meeting, so that people have time to read, think, and reply (and also add it to the agenda).
- If you can, please attend the meeting in person (or via IRC), so we can follow up on your discussion topic during the meeting with your feedback.
Community
- PLATFORM REMINDER! The Platform Meetings are BACK! If you missed the previous ones, here is the etherpad, with links to the recordings on AirMo. We are closing the sandbox preview – huge thanks to everyone who had the time to take a look around and provide feedback!
- We hear you! We will look into better onboarding in the coming weeks, so that our new contributors feel more welcome and taken care of.
- POST-LONDON WORK WEEK UPDATE:
- First Show & Tell post coming your way really soon… Stay tuned!

- To quote Tim Murray: We are now open for feedback on these 7 themes—and for new theme ideas covering anything that might be missing—through the comments section of the blog, on Medium, or directly to me or Janis Greenspan. Now’s the time to add your voice.
- Ongoing reminder #1: if you think you can benefit from getting a second-hand device to help you with contributing to SUMO, you know where to find us.
- Ongoing reminder #2: we are looking for more contributors to our blog. Do you write on the web about open source, communities, SUMO, Mozilla… and more? Do let us know!
- Ongoing reminder #3: want to know what’s going on with the Admins? Check this thread in the forum.
