My colleague Jane Finette just posted fantastic news over at her blog: Mozilla is looking for a Community marketing manager for Europe.
Reporting to the Director of European Marketing, the European Community Marketing Manager will be responsible for developing and supporting Mozilla?s open source communities throughout Europe, whilst enabling and assisting communities to promote and spread Mozilla products and vision. Collaborating as part of a global marketing team and working directly with local communities across Europe, primary responsibilities will include defining and implementing regional community campaigns and activities, market research, and day-to-day efforts in order to support community growth and effectiveness.
(read the entire job description)
The location is flexible (provided that you're based in Europe, that is ;-), but I'm all in favor of having someone based in Paris, with most other people being there. But Jane herself is based in London and we also have offices in Copenhagen, or you could work from home.
If you are interested in working for Mozilla, doing marketing and community stuff, then head right now for the full job description and follow the instructions!

After 5 years of Mozilla hacking, and some patches accepted and landed into the Mozilla trunk, I finally asked yesterday an access to commit on Mercurial repositories of Mozilla. And this request has been granted ! Youhouuu !
For me, it's a sort of gratefulness from the other contributors :-) Thank you Mozilla !

As Mozilla is focusing on technology and products with more frequent releases ?Firefox 3.6 and 3.7, Firefox for Maemo and Thunderbird 3.x are coming soon! ? but something different and not product-related is going to take place in 2010. It's called Mozilla Drumbeat. I'll shamelessly steal a piece of the drumbeat Wiki to explain what Drumbeat is about[1] :
Long Term Vision: make sure the internet is still open, participatory, decentralized and public 100 years from now.
Mission: build community of people who create tools that help others understand, participate and take control of their internet lives.
Approach: website and local events gather people actively involved in creating a better internet. Annual Drumbeat Festival as major convening point.
The reason why I blog about Drumbeat today is that there are 2 positions open, one in Paris (France) and one in Mountain View (California).
Should you be interested in working full time on Drumbeat, head over to Mozilla Drumbeat - Open Web Project Producer in order to see if you could fit! (If not, there are other open positions listed on the Mozilla career site).
Notes
[1] Mark Surman has a great presentation about Mozilla Drumbeat.
On March 31st, 1998, Mozilla' code was made Open Source on Mozilla.org. Mitchell has the scoop. The Mozilla team in Paris had champagne thanks to this anniversary! (Moving to new offices today and getting a new theme are also good excuses...)

Municipalities in Finland are finding that new tendering legislation designed to promote cross-border trade in the EU may not be working as planned. Last year, new EU-driven legislation was introduced, requiring municipalities to tender across the EU for projects costing more than 130,000 Euros. However, they have found that few offers come from abroad, and [...]ShareThis
