It will be an open discussion meeting about how it went this year, and about the new year, of which topics we should focus on and which subcommittees we can form!

After the meeting I was also thinking of organizing an online social mixer in Mozilla hubs, which is a 3D spatial social chat that I got to know from the lockdown era. I’ll share instructions of how to join that next week. Bring a Christmas hat :santa:
