[Ccsf-campus-staff] bringing Open Source Comes to Campus back to City College of San Francisco

[Shauna Gordon-McKeon]

That's great, Larissa!

One thing we've been focusing on more over the last few months is building
relationships between attendees and specific projects.  To that end, we're
always on the lookout for open source projects which are willing to do the
work of:

- making sure their documentation/setup is golden
- identifying specific tasks for newcomers to work on
- generally being friendly and helpful towards newcomers, during the event
as well as ideally afterwards

We can help with all of the following, and are glad to, but it's also
something that the project has to want and work towards.

This is all a very long-winded way of saying that we'd love to work with
Mozilla folks so that attendees can contribute to Mozilla at this event and
others.  :)

- Shauna
