Every time I would like to introduce some local venues for them to visit, and it seems a better way to just document everything here, than send out with individual email.</P>
<p>So here is my personal suggestion places, for my friends to visit during your stay.</p>
<p>look also <a href="https://irvinfly.medium.com/hot-springs-hotels-in-taipei-d4b275ab226d" target="_blank">Hot Springs hotels in Beitou Taipei</a>.</p>
<p>I won't recommend places like <a href="http://www.npm.gov.tw/en/">Palace Museum</a> and observation desk of <a href="www.taipei-101.com.tw/">Taipei 101</a> in here, where I think every visitors would already known them, but local people seldom visit ;)</p>
<p>But if you have at least a whole day, and would like to see some best piece of Chinese art, you should definitely visit Palace Museum.</p>

<h2>Scene & Tourist places</h2>
<p>(Suitable from several hours to half day)</p>
<h3>淡水 (Tamsui)</h3>
<p>Located at MRT Tamsui Station (淡水站), the northern end of MRT Tamsui line (淡水線, red line). It's a history township in northern part of Taipei, but in nowadays more like a leisure place for the people in Taipei City. It's always crowded at weekend evening, people going there to see river, sunset, feel the wind blowing and have some 'small food'(gourmet snacking) at lots of food stalls there.</p>
<p>The small food is good, but the restaurant food is not so well at Tamsui. If you turn into some lanes, you may find some of the traditional houses or a taste of country life where other part of Taiwan would be.</p>
<p>If you have more time, ride a ferry to Bali (八里), the another side of Tamsui river. There is a trail along the river in Bali, with some good restaurants and even more food stalls. I recommend "Badasan", a restaurant featuring aborigines cuisine, with live aborigines song perform every night. (English menu available, suitable for 2-10 people to eat together.)</p>
<p>Aborigine signer is really hit in Taiwan and in Chinese POP music, many of the world-famous Chinese signer are indigenous peoples from different tribes.</p>

</ul>
<h3>貓空 (Maokong)</h3>
<p>Maokong is locating at the terminal station of Maokong Gondola, which you can take from the MRT Taipei Zoo Station, southern end of MRT Wenhu line (文湖線, brown line). You can take the gondola with metro cards (like MRT), and don't need to get into line of ticket counter.</p>
<p>Maokong is traditional tea production area, and famous for it's tea houses (most of them also serve Chinese cuisine). Although the employee barely speaking English, most of them have English menu. If the way of boiled cup of traditional Chinese tea would be a problem for you, maybe reading some introduction in advance is good idea.</p>
<p>Go there in noon, stay until night and have a dinner. The night view of Taipei city from Maokong is really great.</p>

<h3>北投 (Beitou)</h3>
<p>It's closest and best Hot Spring site in Taipei. You can go to there with MRT Tamsui (red) line to Beitou Station (北投站), and take one stop transfer to Xin Beitou Station (新北投站). The hot spring area is just near the station, and you can take a half hour walking along the Guang Ming Rd. (光明路) around hot spring park, into the mid of hot spring area. Most of the hot spring hotel and bath poll is located along the road.</p>
<p>The average price of public hot spring poll (some is suit-up, and some are naked pool) is around NTD 100~300, some of the 5-star hotel can up to 1k, and the average price for personal bath room is about NTD 1.5k~2k for 2 hours. I specially suggest to try "青磺名湯", a hot spring bath room. It's owned by government for decades and re-open in 2012. The public bath (without dress) is only NTD120 entrance fee, and personal bath room cost 350~450 for 1~2 hours (time depends on weekday and season). The quality of spring water is recommend by many people.</p>

<h3>象山 (Xiangshan)</h3>
<p>The meaning of the name is "Elephant Mountain", it's the closest mountain of Taipei city, and have the best city view with 101 just in front. It only 180 meter high and took only about an hour hiking though trail to the top. You can get to the trail at MRT Xiangshan Station (象山站), which is the eastern end of Xinyi (Red) line. It's good place for a leisure walking in morning and noon.</p>

<h2>Market</h2>
<p>Every city in Taiwan has "Night Market", where contains ten to hundreds of food stalls with various of local foods, snacks, drinks and outfits, cheapest and delicious selections. There are many in Taipei City.</p>
<p>Here is a CNN article about common Taiwanese food which you can find everywhere and in most night market. It considered as recent good article on this topic<a href="http://fredjame.com/post/45514187407/40">*</a>. You may use it as a reference, and help for ordering foods.</p>

<h3>Raohe Street Night Market (饒河街夜市)</h3>
<p>There is a good and large night market, "Raohe Street Night Market" (饒河街夜市), which is only 5 mins taxi away from Mozilla Taiwan office (and Hyatt Hotel), and 10 mins walk from MRT Houshanpi Station (後山埤站) on blue line. Unlike famous "Shilin Night Market" (士林夜市), which is mainly open for tourist (I barely go there), this one is which local people also enjoyed.</p>

Many food stalls but less outfit.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Farmer's Market</h3>
<p>There is a farmer's market "Hope Square" (希望廣場), where just next to Guang Hua Digital Plaza (光華商場), famous computer mall at MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station (忠孝新生站).</p>
<p>You can buy freshest seasonal fruit, food materials, tea leaves and local grows roasted coffee beans and snacks. It's opening every weekend from 12-6pm, directly shipped from the farm across whole Taiwan and sell by the farmer themselves. The best is that you can try a bite before buying almost anything on all hundreds stalls. This is my current favorite leisure to do at every weekend.</p>

</ul>
<h2>Caffeine</h2>
<p>There are many many good café in Taipei, most of the independent coffee shop are home roasted, and you can find different various kinds of café inside lanes everywhere.</p>
<p>Mr. Brown, Dante, Ikari and Starbucks is the most popular chain coffee restaurant in Taipei. The coffee of Mr. Brown is fine, Dante and Ikari for me is so-so, and about Starbucks... I'd made my mind that don't to get in any of Starbucks in Taiwan (because of moral issues of Starbucks and uni-president cooperation behind it). and I personally also don't go to chain coffee store much.</p>
<h3>湛盧 Zhanlu Coffee</h3>
<p>I personally consider the best café in Taipei (many also highly recommend) is Zhanlu Coffee (湛盧), for it's stability quality of coffee and service. There are several branch store, and one is locate at MRT Taipei City Hall Station (市政府站). And I often go to another branch store at MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station (忠孝新生站).</p>

<h3>Friendly coffee stores with OSS community</h3>
<p>There're also two cafés which familiar by OSS community in Taiwan. First is ökogreen (生態綠), the first fair-trade coffee shop and trader across Chinese area (China/Hong Kong/Taiwan). The second is GozCafé (果子咖啡). They're always been good friends with local OSS contributors, and of course the coffee is well no doubt.</p>

<h2>Bubble Tea and Tea Shop</h2>
<p>Bubble Tea (珍珠奶茶) is the most famous drinks from Taiwan. You can find a lots of tea shops across the whole city, with various choices of juice and tea. The typical menu will including from 20 to hundreds of items, but basically it's the combination of tea, milk, juice and jelly.</p>
<p>You can choose the tea first, which typically including Black Tea, Oolong Tea and Green Tea, whether with flesh milk (鮮奶), coffee cream (奶精) or not. Then you can choose to add bubble (aka. bōbà, perl, tapioca balls) or jelly (grass or coffee jelly), if available.</p>
<p>Whether drinks you choose, you have to decide the sweet and ice, from full (全) / half (半) / 20% (微) / no (去) sugar and ice. And of course you can ordering in hot. I usually order in "20% sugar and less ice" (微糖少冰), that would be already sweet enough for me.</p>
<p>Some of my favorite drinks are, Perl Milk Tea (波霸奶茶), Fresh Grapefruit Green Tea (鮮柚綠), Yakult Green Tea (養樂多綠), Pudding Milk Tea (布丁奶茶), Bubble Milk Green Tea (波霸奶綠), and recently popular choice, Matcha Milk Tea (抹茶牛奶).</p>
<p>If available, I'll order "Fresh Milk Tea" (鮮奶茶) instead of typical coffee whiteners in milk tea. Hot/Iced cocoa (熱巧克力) and Ovaltine (阿華田) also available in most drink shop.</p>
<p>My recommanded chain brand of Tea Shop are <a href="http://www.50lan.com.tw/">50嵐</a> (50 'Lan', blue and yellow sign), <a href="http://www.chafortea.com.tw/">天仁</a> (喫茶趣, Cha For Tea, green sign). <a href="www.presotea.com.tw">鮮茶道</a> (Presotea, light and dark green sign), <a href="www.mr-wish.com/">Mr.Wish</a>, and <a href="www.comebuy2002.com.tw">Come Buy</a> are also my frequent choices.</p>

<h2>Other places in Taiwan</h2>
<p>Taipei is consider the most convenience city in Taiwan (and the wealth one), but judged by "comfortable" and "livable", Southern Taiwan is more leisure and vocation choice. Taipei is like Tokyo in Japan, which many people moved in for job, but endure the difficultly of it's higher expense, ridiculous housing prices and crowded environment. If you'd like to take a longer vocation (several days to than a week?), I suggest you visit Eastern Taiwan and Southern Taiwan.</p>
<h3>Eastern Taiwan (東台灣)</h3>
<p>Eastern part of Taiwan is a valley next to Pacific Ocean, surrounded by Ocean Mountain. Most of the plain land are farms with little residents. Imagine wake up to see the sunrise and ocean. Also it's the main residential area of Taiwanese aborigines.</p>
<h3>Southern Taiwan</h3>
<p>Southern Taiwan has much better weather (always sunny, still warming to wear short t-shirt in winter).</p>
<h4>Tainan (台南)</h4>
<p>Tainan is the Kyoto of Taiwan. It's oldest city in Taiwan (almost 400 years) and people are proud of their own history, culture and food. You'll see many café/restaurant opening in old traditional residence buildings, and the history of many common food restaurants everywhere were more than a hundred year. If you love the old city and culture flavor, you'll feel and learn a lot in Tainan.</p>

</ul>
<h4>Kaohsiung (高雄)</h4>
<p>Kaohsiung is a harbor city in the south of Tainan. It's a metro city combined with many tourism venues. You can biking through the whole city and along the harbor coast, enjoy the sunset at Qijin island then taking the boat down along the beautiful night scene of Love River.</p>

<h4>Kenting (墾丁)</h4>
<p>Kenting is the most southern town of Taiwan. It's a national park which is famous for it's tropical weather and ocean (which is good for surfing and diving). Its the most favorite vocation venue in Taiwan. There is also a large rock music festival every spring.</p>

<h2>Geeky Shopping</h2>
<p>The most popular market of electronic devices / computers / hardware parts in Taipei is "Guang Hua Digital Plaza" (光華商場) and the nearby Bade Road (八德路). It's just right in the center of Taipei City, near MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station (忠孝新生站, intersection of blue and Yellow line).</p>

<p>昨晚,有人<a href="https://join.gov.tw/idea/detail/15f16ff8-76d7-403a-873f-74439e0a3036" target="_blank">在 JOIN 平台</a>披露了在立院本院期,由立委鄭運鵬提案,經另外19名立委連署的<a href="http://misq.ly.gov.tw/MISQ/IQuery/misq5000QueryBillDetail.action?billNo=1060907070200200">著作權法八十四條之一修正草案</a>。*</p>
<p>這件事情會不會讓你又想起,四年前智財局仿造 SOPA / PIPA 法案,惹來極大爭議的「制裁局行政封網」事件?</p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>經濟部智慧財產局研擬封鎖境外侵權網站事件</em>發生於2013年5月,起因為中華民國經濟部智慧財產局發表新聞研擬修法,將由智慧財產局直接下令ISP業者,以IP位址或DNS技術等方式封鎖「一望即知重大侵權的境外網站」,後來因外界批評而考慮改由法院裁定。由於「重大明顯的侵權行為」難以認定,由國家行政機關自行界定有濫權之可能,使用人數眾多的土豆網、PPS網路電視,因為有部分合法授權內容,YouTube已有完善內控機制,因此不在取締的黑名單之列,此舉引起認定的質疑,更引發網路輿論譁然,甚至被解讀為2013年台灣網路的白色恐怖,網友群起串聯抗議,原本預計於2013年第二立法院院會期間審查,後來停止推動修法。</p>

<p>由於該事件接在美國 2011 年 SOPA / PIPA 法案之後,立即造成剛聲援過外國行動的網友的警覺與不滿,網友不但共同發起了 <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/486224794784563/">FB 連署聲援活動</a>,另外我們 MozTW 社群當時還聯合維基百科社群,做了一個現在還存在的 <a href="https://moztw.org/events/blackout/">Blackout 頁面</a>,供大家自行掛載在 Blog 或網站上。</p>
<p>沒想到(真的沒想到嗎?)過了四年,此法案又換到民進黨立委手上捲土重來了。</p>

<p>讓我們看回來本次由鄭運鵬委員提案的封網草案。(<a href="http://misq.ly.gov.tw/MISQ/IQuery/misq5000QueryBillDetail.action?billNo=1060907070200200">立院總第553號,委員提案第21044號</a>)</p>
<blockquote>
第八十四條之一
<br> 中華民國境外之網站如有侵害著作權之情事,著作權人依民事訴訟法提起保全程序者,適用以下規定:
<br> 一、依民事訴訟法第五百二十五條第一項聲請應表明之當事人及法定代理人事項,倘不知該中華民國境外網站所有人之年籍資料者,得僅列該中華民國境外之網站之 IP 位置或網域名稱。
<br> 二、著作權人依民事訴訟法第五百二十六條第二項及第三項所提供之擔保,中華民國境外之網站所有人於法院淮予假處分或定暫時狀態後六十日內,未依民事訴訟法第五百二十九條第一項聲請法院命著作權人於一定期間起訴,著作權人得取回所提供之擔保。
<br> 三、如無法知悉該侵權境外網站之地址時,前開依民事訴訟法保全程序所為之裁定及執行命令,得以電子方式傳遞至網站上所戴之電郵地址,如未載電郵地址者,聲請人可逕依民事訴訟法第一百四十九條聲請公示送達。
<br> 四、該境外網站所有人如依民事訴訟法之規定令聲請人限期起訴者,其聲請狀應依民事訴訟法第一百十六條規定記載所列事項。
<br> 五、著作權人得聲請法院令網際網路服務業者封鎖該 IP 位址或網域,並令臺灣網際網路中心(TWNIC)不得解析該網頁。
<br> 六、第一款、二款、三款及第四款之規定於假處分及定暫時狀態時準用之。
<br> 七、聲請人依法院令其限期起訴後,該民事訴訟即適用民事訴訟之規定。

<blockquote>著作權人或製版權人對於侵害其權利者,得請求排除之,有侵害之虞者,得請求防止之。</blockquote>
<h2 id="toc_1">這份草案的問題?</h2>
<p>雖然這次的草案,的確針對上次被批評的最嚴重的「行政機關未經法院程序封鎖網站」,修改為須由著作權人依民事訴訟法,向法院提起保全程序,但個人認為還是有許多問題,下面一條一條看。</p>
<p><em>(個人非法律專業,下方僅為按照一己之鄉民知識進行解讀,如有錯誤請指教)</em></p>
<h3 id="toc_0">八十四條之一</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>中華民國境外之網站如有侵害著作權之情事,著作權人依民事訴訟法提起保全程序者,適用以下規定:</blockquote>
</p>
<p>因此「封網」不需等待法院判決程序完成,只要著作權人先繳交一定金額保證金並申請假處份定暫時狀態,經法官裁定,即可先封為快。</p>
<h3 id="toc_2">第一款</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>一、依民事訴訟法第五百二十五條第一項聲請應表明之當事人及法定代理人事項,倘不知該中華民國境外網站所有人之年籍資料者,得僅列該中華民國境外之網站之 IP 位置或網域名稱。</blockquote>
</p>
<p>聲請保全程序,只需要列出網站 IP 位置或 Domain Name。</p>
<h3 id="toc_3">第二款&第六款</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>二、著作權人依民事訴訟法第五百二十六條第二項及第三項所提供之擔保,中華民國境外之網站所有人於法院淮予假處分或定暫時狀態後六十日內,未依民事訴訟法第五百二十九條第一項聲請法院命著作權人於一定期間起訴,著作權人得取回所提供之擔保。
<br> 六、第一款、二款、三款及第四款之規定於假處分及定暫時狀態時準用之。
</blockquote>
</p>
<p>參照民事訴訟法第 529 條</p>
<p>
<blockquote>本案尚未繫屬者,命假扣押之法院應依債務人聲請,命債權人於一定期間內起訴。
<br> 下列事項與前項起訴有同一效力:
<br>一、依督促程序,聲請發支付命令者。
<br>二、依本法聲請調解者。
<br>三、依第三百九十五條第二項為聲明者。
<br>四、依法開始仲裁程序者。
<br>五、其他經依法開始起訴前應踐行之程序者。
<br>六、基於夫妻剩餘財產差額分配請求權而聲請假扣押,已依民法第一千零一十條請求宣告改用分別財產制者。
<br> 前項第六款情形,債權人應於宣告改用分別財產制裁定確定之日起十日內,起訴請求夫妻剩餘財產差額分配。
<br> 債權人不於第一項期間內起訴或未遵守前項規定者,債務人得聲請命假扣押之法院撤銷假扣押裁定。
</blockquote>
</p>
<p>只要外籍網站負責人沒有在六十日內,向台灣法院聲請,著作權人可以不需要繼續起訴,還能把保證金拿回,成功透過公權力達成六十天封網效力。</p>
<h3 id="toc_4">第三款</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>三、如無法知悉該侵權境外網站之地址時,前開依民事訴訟法保全程序所為之裁定及執行命令,得以電子方式傳遞至網站上所戴之電郵地址,如未載電郵地址者,聲請人可逕依民事訴訟法第一百四十九條聲請公示送達。</blockquote>
</p>
<p>如果該外籍網站有電子郵件,法院裁定跟執行命令可以透過電子郵件寄送。如果沒有,那地球被拆除,也是你們自己地球人五十年都不來看銀河公告的後果。</p>
<h3 id="toc_5">第五款</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>五、著作權人得聲請法院令網際網路服務業者封鎖該 IP 位址或網域,並令臺灣網際網路中心(TWNIC)不得解析該網頁。</blockquote>
</p>
<p>TWNIC 只管 .tw 跟 .台灣的網域註冊,干境外侵權網站何事?</p>
<p>何況侵權內容可能只是全站其中一篇、甚至其中一個留言,找網域管理方,難道是要把整個站給封掉嗎?</p>
<h2 id="toc_6">任何封網法案都有侵犯言論自由的問題</h2>
<p>當今幾乎所有的網站都有 UGC(使用者內容),除非事前審查,否則沒有任何一個網站能做到即時絕對的防止侵權或違法內容。就算是中國的網站(例如微博),也只會 1. 針對特定的關鍵字不讓你貼出 2. 在高層通告後取下特定內容;而不會做全站的發文審查。</p>
<p><em>只要是事前審查,就有侵犯言論自由的問題。</em></p>
<p>現行網路上的慣例是,只要站方有機制控管,並且接受處理版權方的 take down notice,就不該需為使用者張貼的內容而負責。也不應該為了單一侵權內容,而對全站進行封鎖。</p>
<p><a href="https://www.manilaprinciples.org/zh-hant#principles-page-3" target="_blank">馬尼拉原則第四條</a>,亦有提到針對第三方的內容限制命令,須謹守比例原則:</p>
<p>
<blockquote>法律、內容限制命令,和實務做法必須通過必要性和比例原則的檢驗
<br> 在一個民主社會中,法律、內容限制命令,和實務做法必須具備必要性並合乎比例:
<br> <em>- 所有內容限制必須局限於特定之爭議內容。</em>
<br> <em>- 在對內容進行限制時,必須採用限制性最低的技術手段。</em>
</blockquote>
</p>
<p>如果此一草案通過,按照他的遊戲規則,難道只要著作權人繳交一定費用,再找一篇侵權貼文,就可以通過法院去聲請封鎖 Google?封鎖噗浪?封鎖 Medium?封鎖任何架設於境外的網站?</p>
<p>更何況,<em>今天可以封鎖侵權內容,明日就可以封鎖異議內容</em>。此類案例只要一開,就會成為當政者威脅民主的利器。</p>
<h2 id="toc_7">網路言論管控不是只有國民黨會幹的事</h2>
<p>此一封網草案,居然由熟悉網路族群,長期以來於數位及網路圈形象良好的民進黨<a href="https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-tw/鄭運鵬" target="_blank">鄭運鵬</a>委員提出,還有時代力量立委參與連署,真是讓人大失所望。</p>
<p>這也再次向我們證明,此類涉及言論管控的意圖,不是只有國民黨或長期浸在政治醬缸中的染色政客會提;民主絕對不是選舉一天的事,之後還需要持續不斷的監督跟倡議。(本會期還有 <a href="https://nninlaw.hackpad.tw/ep/pad/static/dc" target="_blank">數位匯流修法</a>、電信法與資安法)</p>

What is the price for us to eliminating the reviewing queue with robots? (picture from <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/File:PreliminaryReview.png">Mozilla Wiki</a>)</p>
<p>Most people don’t know that we’re now using an automatically-approval process on AMO for Firefox Add-on review (since mid. September)*, which means, our program will check for known problems and threats in new add-ons, and if not found, it will get published without any manual process.</p>
<p>* <a href="https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2017/09/21/review-wait-times-get-shorter/">Extension review wait times are about to get much shorter (blog.mozilla.org)</a></p>
<p>The benefit is time. Some addon author already found that the reviewing process is incredibly quick, that it will get published in just a few minutes after uploaded new version.</p>
<p>However, the automatically approved system (which Chrome used for many years) had been considering harmful for general user, because it can be the routes for malware to get into user’s browser, and we can only stop and fix it after someone discovered and reported back, and cannot prevent in advance with current manual reviewing process.</p>
<p>And this bad part had ALREADY happened just in that week after the automatically review process up. Two weeks ago, we discover several add-ons had bound with mining codes on AMO. After some research, we found 7 add-ons with the same codes in the end.</p>
<ul>
<li><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/737kze/mining_codes_been_discovered_in_two_reviewed/">Mining codes been discovered in two reviewed add-ons from "Add-ons for Firefox" site. (r/firefox)</a></p></li>
<li><p><a href="http://boards.4chan.org/g/thread/62674567/bitcoin-miner-in-firefox-addons6">/g/ - >bitcoin miner in firefox addons. >addons are aut - Technology - 4chan (boards.4chan.org)</a></p></li>
</ul>
<p>Although the editor had banned them, the MALICIOUS ADD-ONs had already got into user’s computer. We didn’t know how many users were affected nor how many mal-addons left there in public.</p>
<p>Many people (including me) feel that AMO is not trustworthy anymore because of the potential threat. Without fully manual review, we need to assume that every add-on appears on AMO can be dangerous.</p>
<p>The manual review process had always been considering one of the better things Firefox’s eco-system over Chrome, that the reviewer will not only check for the malicious codes, but also help addon author to follow some best practice (eg., using the known version of libraries such as jQuery from official site).</p>
<p>And because of the manual reviewing process, we told general user that they need to be aware for Add-on installed from other sites, and they can trust the one listed on AMO.</p>
<p>With non-manual checking Add-ons (and the fact that dangerous code can be live there), we cannot trust any AMO add-ons now. Even for those been manual reviewed, because we just cannot tell which one had been check and which is not apart.</p>
<p>Even worst, some normal add-ons may be updated with malicious codes, been auto-approval and push into user’s browser with our auto-update mechanism anytime.</p>
<p>Many people are asking for purchasing the ownership of my add-ons from time to time in past, that they want to earn the profit by adding Ads to it. Guess what they want to do for now if they discover the change of reviewing process?</p>
<p>According to the discussion on AMO blog article, on IRC addon channel, Reddit, 4chan, Telegram and within above and below links, many contributors including volunteering reviewers, Add-on authors and users already raise the concern about safety and trust problem, before and after the change.</p>
<ul>
<li><p><a href="https://www.ghacks.net/2017/10/03/mozilla-changes-review-process-for-firefox-webextensions/">Mozilla changes review process for Firefox WebExtensions - gHacks Tech News (www.ghacks.net)</a></p></li>

</ul>
<p>They didn’t get the answers before the auto-approved enabling. And they saw the incidents happened. Besides removing those add-ons which been reported, there is still lack of any steps and strategies to prevent future incidents happening again.</p>
<p>My question is — How can we still convince users that Firefox eco-system is still TRUSTWORTHY? If even myself found it’s not trustful anymore.</p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I’m Irvin, Mozilla contributor from Taiwan. I had contributing to internet Human Right policy advocacy for years and had joined last year’s RightsCon.</p>
<p>Recently I notice that Access Now wrongly list my country’s name as “Taiwan, Province of China” on the campaign page country drop-down list (eg., <a href="https://www.accessnow.org/campaign/free-ahmed-mansoor/">Take Action - Access Now</a> ). Please correct it and listing our country as "Taiwan" or "Taiwan (Republic of China)" (our formal name).</p>

<p>I believe you had wrongly followed <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2">ISO 3166-2</a>, this name list wrongly put Taiwan under "province of China", following UNs POV, we all know how bias it can be.</p>
<p>Taiwan had never been a province of current China Communist government, although they always claimed as it, and force other country to acknowledge it as "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-China_policy">One-China Policy</a>".</p>
<p>We are an independent island country, with 23M inhabitants. We had democracy government with elected presidents, no internet regulation, not behind the great firewall, and in no favor of totalitarianism.</p>
<p>We had strong civil society and diversity civil hacker communities such as <a href="http://g0v.tw/">g0v</a>, famous civil hacker community. We even have legally gay marriage (start from 2019).</p>
<p>You can read the whole story in articles below. In short, we had been an independent political entity since 1949, when KMT party lose their civil war against Communist Party in China and retreat to this island.</p>

The process will cease to function soon after Firefox 58 release. Thanks for it to enabling the upgrade of my working profile to Quantum anyway.</p><p>預期這個方法到 Firefox 58 應該就會失效(如果開啟 Firefox (v58) Beta,Tab Groups 會被再次停用)。雖然這應該是個 Bug 不是 Feature,不過還是感謝它能讓我的作業環境正式升級到 Quantum。</p><p>After testing for few days, I notice that sometimes Tab Group will randomly disappear (with all tabs in other groups).</p><p>Dont panic! You just need to close Firefox, reopen Firefox 57 Beta, go to AMO Tab Group page, and click <em>[+Install to Firefox]</em>. It will resume working after reinstalling addon, and your tabs will still there.</p><p>經過幾天測試,分頁群組偶而會失效。此時只要關閉 Firefox,重新開啟 Firefox 57 Beta,再到 AMO 上點選「+新增至 Firefox」即可恢復正常。</p><p>I’ll keep using Firefox Quantum (v57) until the most critical WebExtension API "Hiding & showing tabs" (<a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384515">Bug 1384515</a>) landed, and successor of Tab Groups been giving birth.</p><p>The patch and proof of concept from Dietrich and :johannh had been uploaded for three months, but I’m not able to follow the long, long thread of comments on that bug recently.</p><p>接著應該會繼續用這個方式用 57.0 頂著,直到 WebExtension API 中最關鍵的<a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384515">「隱藏分頁」API</a> 完成,並有人開發出分頁群組替代品吧。</p><p>(Patch 以及驗證概念的測試套件都提出三個月了,最近吵了一長串,看不懂是什麼狀況⋯⋯)</p><p>Besides the above method, I’d also been tested <a href="https://www.waterfoxproject.org">Waterfox</a> for last month.

<p>感謝何明諠向我推薦這個活動,以下是我的參與紀錄。</p>
<h3>RightsCon</h3>
<p>RightsCon 由跨國的數位人權組織 <a href="https://www.accessnow.org">Access Now</a> 主辦(請參閱台權會 2016 會後紀錄:<a href="https://www.tahr.org.tw/transparency/blog/archives/727">我們要在哪裡談資訊人權--RightsCon之後 – 台灣網路透明報告</a>)。</p>
<p>今年主議程共有三天,每天從早上九點進行到晚上六點,共有超過 250 場講座、工作坊跟光速講,且前後數日另有多場關聯活動。現場除議程進行外,另有數個人權組織的攤位與多個交誼廳。</p>
<p>我總共參加了超過 15 場議程,當然有的討論的比較深入,有的就是聽聽。</p>
<h3>影片報告</h3>
<p>每一天的晚上,我各錄了 15~30 分鐘的影片,立即報告當天的行程與參與心得。因為都是忙了一整天後的錄影,也沒有先打草稿,所以說得有點瑣碎。如果大家聽不下去,也可以直接跳下一段文字紀錄就好 ;P</p>

<p>建置網頁伺服器時採用 Apache,博物館系統的資料庫使用 MySQL,管理郵件伺服器時使用 Postfix,建置資訊系統時使用 Linux 或 B2D 當作業系統。 </p>
<p>區域網路使用 dhcp3-server 或 Bind。</p>
<p>個別的工作人員使用開放原始碼軟體作為個人辦公之用,例如使用 Open Office 來作文書處理,使用 Firefox 來瀏覽網頁,用 Word Press 來撰寫部落格,或是用 Thunderbird 來收發電子郵件。</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="toc_7">應用於博物館特定任務的開源碼工具</h3>
<blockquote>
<p>設計展場的環場投影特效時,使用 Agave、CAVEUT、Cryengine 等開放原始碼 3D 引擎和軟體。</p>
<p>使用諸如 OpenSceneGraph、Octaga 等開放原始碼影像工具製作線上的 3D 展示或虛擬實境展覽。</p>
<p>採用內容管理軟體如 Drupal、Greenstone,加以修改後當作數位內容管理和數位資產管理系統使用。</p>

<p>本段分享三篇來自中研院創用 CC 專案的文章,分享與討論 GLAM 進行開放館藏的決策時的考量。</p>
<h3 id="toc_25">荷蘭國家博物館經驗談:開放館藏的決策過程</h3>
<p><a href="http://creativecommons.tw/blog/20151113">http://creativecommons.tw/blog/20151113</a></p>
<p>由於展示空間不足,只能展出不到百分之一的作品,開放資料希望能讓更多館藏被看見與使用。</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Rijksmuseum是荷蘭於1800年成立、致力於藝術及歷史的國家博物館,實體館藏超過一百萬件。就算新館展區多達22000平方公尺,卻也只能展出約莫8000件展品。為了能讓更多館藏被看到,荷蘭國家博物館花費很多心力進行館藏數位化。</p>
</blockquote>
<p>應該開放到何種程度(該不該限制姓名標示、商業用途)的考量點:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>⋯⋯館方希望使用「創用CC 姓名標示」的授權方式,要求使用者使用圖像時標示出處,Europeana、維基媒體基金會、開放知識基金會則認為應該讓數位化後的作品仍維持公眾領域狀態。幾經討論後,這些數位化圖像最終以「公眾領域貢獻宣告」(CC0)授權釋出,在圖像的詮釋資料裡都清楚標示出作品的創作年代及公眾領域法律地位。</p>
</blockquote>
<p>最終以公領域釋出的原因:</p>
<blockquote>
<ol>
<li>博物館在實務上很難控制數位化圖像的使用。</li>
<li>網路上早已存在許多畫質不佳、來源不可靠的數位化藝術作品。</li>
<li>讓館藏在不同平台上被更多使用者取用。</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="toc_26">OpenGLAM 指導原則</h3>
<p><a href="http://creativecommons.tw/blog/20151123">OpenGLAM:開放美術館、圖書館、檔案館與博物館</a></p>
<p>由開放知識基金會 OKFN 制定,提供 GLAM 機構作為制定開放資料政策時的參考。</p>
<blockquote>
<p>美術館、圖書館、典藏館和博物館是文化資產的看管人,守護館藏就是守護整體人類的記錄,這些文化機構在協助人類知識進步上扮演關鍵角色。網路提供文化資產機構一個前所未見的機會,讓他們能吸引來自全世界的觀眾、使館藏比以往更容易被發現和連結,並讓使用者能成為主動的貢獻、參與、分享者。</p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="https://openglam.org/principles/">OpenGLAM Principles</a></p>
<blockquote>
<ol>
<li>使用如 CC0 的合適法律工具發布關於物件的數位資訊(即詮釋資料),使其成為公眾領域。</li>
<li>讓超過著作權保障期限的作品數位化後仍然維持公眾領域的狀態,而不會對其主張額外的新權利。</li>
<li>發布資料時,要將對於資料描述、整體資料館藏、館藏附屬品被重複使用及賦予新用途的期望,做出清楚且堅定的宣言。</li>
<li>發布資料時,使用可供機讀的開放檔案格式。</li>
<li>應該追求以創新方式在網路上吸引觀眾投入的機會。</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<p>例如故宮的藏畫,不應該因為故宮將其拍攝,該數位化作品就被視為新著作,重新受到著作權年限保護。判斷的因子應該是有無創作的行為與創意因素。</p>
<h3 id="toc_27">館藏開放研究教學應用</h3>
<p><a href="http://creativecommons.tw/node/1181">開放公眾領域圖像的中繼站:Artstor的IAP服務</a></p>
<p>在完全以公領域或開放授權條款開放館藏資料前,是否先有條件開放資料供學界研究與教學使用。Artstor 是一項學術印刷用圖像計畫,使用者只能將圖像用於非商業性用途,而且不能印刷超過 2000 份。</p>

<h2 id="toc_46">中國博物館的 IP 開發</h2>
<p>「IP 開發」是中國內容產業的當紅議題。從影視劇本到遊戲帶動的內容產權開發風潮,也已經影響到 GLAM 機構。在此分享一些相關的案例與報導。</p>
<h3 id="toc_47">【硬塞科技字典】什麼是 IP 化?</h3>
<p><a href="https://www.inside.com.tw/2016/07/01/what-is-ip">https://www.inside.com.tw/2016/07/01/what-is-ip</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>IP 即是 Intellectual Property(智慧財產權、知識產權)的縮寫,IP 化指的是透過收購網路小說、遊戲、電影、文化作品版權,再將這些劇情稍加改編,製作成周邊產品例如影集、遊戲、電影等,這個產製的形式就被稱為 IP 化。</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 id="toc_48">中國博物館IP開發不容樂觀</h3>
<p><a href="http://big5.ftchinese.com/story/001069027">http://big5.ftchinese.com/story/001069027</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>IP,Intellectual Property,即知識產權—最近兩年中國資本市場異軍突起的高頻詞—熱度已經從去年的網絡文學與影視圈,蔓延至新興的文博創意產業。中國擁有超過4500家博物館(包括民辦博物館在內),海量的館藏文物藝術品和非物質文化遺產,也意味着可供發掘的傳統文化資源取之不盡,用之不竭。</p>
<p>絕大部分博物館的文物藝術品商店,整體銷售情況都不理想,若再考慮場地、人力、研發的運營成本,即便偶有收益,也是杯水車薪。有位來自西北某省級博物館的學員說,雖然他們也有館藏複製品、彩陶茶具等具有地域特色的產品,但收效甚微,一年僅有2萬元左右流水進賬。「我們館最暢銷的商品,其實是飲料。」該學員開玩笑道。</p>

<h3 id="toc_49">北京故宮的 IP 開發案例</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.haixiaba.com/n1267443.html">最豪華歷史文化IP —故宮博物館怎么把它發揮的淋漓盡致</a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>故宮博物院有專門的團隊負責文創產品研發,“故宮淘寶”由隸屬于故宮博物院的北京故宮文化服務中心進行管理,該中心具備獨立法人資格,獲得故宮博物院授權,負責開發故宮元素的文化產品。⋯⋯往往一件文化創意產品需要歷經數月磨合,才能終得出品。而目前為故宮博物院提供文化創意產品設計和加工的企業已達60余家。</p>
<p>故宮博物院與阿里巴巴合作,在天貓開設了官方旗艦店,旗艦店由文創、出版、門票三大板塊組成。⋯⋯高密剪紙、朱仙鎮木版年畫、內聯升老布鞋等非物質文化遺產傳承人手工制作。眾籌上線不到半天,多款產品一搶而空。可見,故宮+古早文化IP的開發具有很大空間。</p>

<p>第四季連續有三個故事各講三集,在鋪陳星聯的成立與 Archer 的重要性,還真的都蠻精彩的。跟第三季的 Xindi 戰爭,完全是不同層次啊。</p>
<p>
S4 EP4-EP6 講強化人跟宋博士<br>
S4 EP7-EP9 講瓦肯的政治變局,扭轉整套 Enterprise 瓦肯跟地球的關係<br>
S4 EP12-14 講企業號作為地球、瓦肯、安多利跟 Tellarites 結盟,對抗羅慕蘭的核心角色</p>
<p>目前就看到這邊,後面是克林貢人要出場了。</p>
<p>S3 的最後幾集跟 S4 前兩集,用了很緊湊的場面收尾 Xindi 戰爭,不過 Archer 真的不是動作明星。雖然 S3 最後面場面是很大很爽沒錯。S3 最後一集倒數五分鐘跟 S4 前兩集是用來 reset 用的,沒有特別理由可以跳過去沒關係⋯⋯。</p>
<p>接著把 S4 看完之後,打算來根據 Netflix 的大數據看看 VOY 的這幾集⋯⋯</p>

<blockquote><p>「Uber 並不能保證第三方提供者的適合程度、安全性和能力。確定第三方提供者是否符合你的需要和預期,完全是你的責任。對於你和第三方提供者之間出現的糾紛,Uber 不會介入。一旦你使用 Uber 服務,即意味着你承認自己可能暴露於任何涉及第三方提供者的情況,第三方提供者可能不安全、具有攻擊性,對未成年人可能有傷害,或者因此令人不快。使用第三方提供者所安排或計劃的服務風險由你自己承擔。因為你與第三方提供者的交易或關係引發的問題,Uber 一概不負任何責任。」</p></blockquote>
<p>姑且不論 Uber 實際上是否不負責任。只從以上的文本來討論,正常的服務條款,會說自己可能會傷害小孩嗎?</p>
<p>Google 了一下,Uber <a href="https://www.uber.com/legal/terms/tw/">目前的免責條款</a>跟上面引用的不太一樣:</p>
<blockquote><p>「UBER 不會就第三方提供商的服務質量、適用性、安全性或服務能力作出任何擔保。您同意,在適用法律所允許的最大範圍內,所有因您使用本服務及任何相關的服務或商品帶來的風險均與您自身相關。<p>責任限制。<br>
UBER 概不對有關、相關或由於使用本服務而導致的間接性、偶然性、特殊性、懲戒性、懲罰性或後果性損失,包括遺失利潤、遺失資料、人身傷害或財產損害承擔責任,即使 UBER 已被告知該等損害的可能性。」</p></blockquote>
<p>此外,一般的網路服務大部分都限制未成年人使用,Uber 跟 Lyft 亦同,條款中如下限制 18 歲以下不得申請帳號,跟未由帳號所有人陪同不得搭乘:</p>
<blockquote><p>「本服務不供 18 歲以下人士使用。您不得授權第三方使用您的帳戶,亦不得允許 18 歲以下人士從第三方提供商處獲得運輸服務或物流服務,除非由您陪同。」</p></blockquote>
<p>所以最上方引用的「對未成年人可能有傷害」部分,看了真的蠻奇怪。</p>
<p>搜索了一下,這一段原文應該是<a href="http://techcrunch.cn/2014/12/08/uber-faces-legal-action-in-india-following-arrest-of-rape-suspect/">中國版 TechCrunch 簡中翻譯</a>出來的,同樣來自於 TechCrunch 的<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2014/12/07/uber-faces-legal-action-in-india-following-arrest-of-rape-suspect/">英文原文</a>是這樣:</p>
<blockquote><p>「UBER DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE SUITABILITY, SAFETY OR ABILITY OF THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS. IT IS SOLELY YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO DETERMINE IF A THIRD PARTY PROVIDER WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS. UBER WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND
A THIRD PARTY PROVIDER. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU MAY BE EXPOSED TO SITUATIONS INVOLVING THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS THAT ARE POTENTIALLY UNSAFE, OFFENSIVE, HARMFUL TO MINORS, OR OTHERWISE OBJECTIONABLE, AND THAT USE OF THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS

<p>後事實時代,對任何資訊都要多加查證,通常都是七分真三分假啊。</p>irvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15161996249607084651noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9654230.post-34323351551843434142017-03-12T00:42:00.000+08:002017-03-15T11:08:05.027+08:00Mozilla Community Space Taipei Status Report, May 2014 - Feb 2017<p><em>“摩茲工寮, Mozilla Community Space Taipei”</em> is an event/meeting/working space and shelter to the local Mozillians, Mozilla volunteers, and OSS communities.</p>
<p>It is the first of three spaces besides <a href="http://www.mozspacemnl.org/">Manila Space</a> & <a href="http://www.mozilla.or.id/space.html">Jakarta Space</a>. The spaces are leading by Mozilla Open Innovation Group's “<a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Participation/Community_Spaces">community spaces</a>” project, managing by local MozTW volunteers.</p>
<p>Here I will share about some brief status of the Taipei Space.</p>
<p>(I'll use “MozTW Space” or “Space” as the abbreviation to “Mozilla Community Space Taipei” below.)</p>

<h2>MozTW Community</h2>
<p>Mozilla Taiwan Community (MozTW) is a local Mozilla volunteer community. We had contributing by localizing, promoting Firefox, Mozilla and open cultures to Mozilla and open source projects since 2004.</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh326zuCGwQKFngkPlq7ETR6jr9BIMH_oBNxkBsY-6G3Y6NJHl_WHd7cV_JcnKtxTQvEYkDqg4Tu_4dqaTPzbpYYsRU2Op4FEnOVoNRxOOxobBDJsdqoybdkwWhOcwKckrw2bbqdw/s9999/1489248627.png" alt="MozTW" style="max-width: 100%;"></div>
<p>MozTW maintained an online <a href="https://moztw.org">product portal and forum</a>, hosting <a href="https://moztw.org/events/">many offline events</a> and engaging with other Asia Mozillians and open source hackers.</p>

<h2>History of Space</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuzuD4ludo7j_iCPguq8Yd8mcGhhmTJ8xxOnJA5YfKZycJT48Tvl4C5QXA-lA3dbGhrlCd3gRcbfkE55kgbbw8zq2FSzlzyThOYXgYN-fP9moc1MjUt4_JvwtVZOGAb-epJ1emYw/s9999/1489248851.png" alt="MozTW Space site" style="max-width: 100%;"></div>
<p>The Community Space was an idea initially raised by William Quiviger in 2013, and sponsored by WPR team. We started the first experimental space in Taipei spring 2014.</p>
<p>After April 2016, the space project had transitioned to Participation Team, supported by Brian King. In February 2017, it has been transitioned to Open Innovation Group with the help by George Roter and Konstantina.</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlSqSGiIiE3Mn-oH5uBJL5QdISpVHx9K-_Ffn9yFFqgBX28ZJguWdbLANCDJlVRcFACB9yVBPMkNUK-3irGXa0iuNLTJ0fLLiRQWSHu71nwEG4vApaePdV7N1EqASrg575LfdtKA/s9999/1489248863.png" alt="History" style="max-width: 100%;"></div>
<h2>Keyholders</h2>
<p>MozTW Space is co-managing by “Keyholder,” 15 local Mozilla volunteers. Keyholders are all vouched Mozillians, and has same privilege. People need to be countersigned by more than 50% of Mozillian visitors (in last three months) when they applied for the position. The threshold represents the community's support to the applicant.</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2Il0O1TVp_JQjNTp34Bk59SOyXddz33ht3HsPYP3WMETypLGIU0vi0Ia1spyN7hZ69dtS4-Wy6UcBZ3UqE2E5nKtbdYA46qif8shdqlgBpEPasWxi8UHo1o1-r_JMHlU-AigdyQ/s9999/1489248884.png" alt="Keyholders" style="max-width: 100%;"></div>
<h2>Visitors & Events</h2>
<p>Everyone is welcome to visiting MozTW space when there is any Keyholder inside. However, it's not opening 24 hours / 7 days a week due to the volunteers ability. In last three years, we managed to open the space 20~25 days per month in average. (mostly
the night time)</p>
<p>Besides Mozilla events, we also welcome and support all open culture and programming communities to hosting their events in the MozTW Space. Totally there are more than <strong>8000 visitors</strong> and <strong>760 events</strong> since May 2014.</p>

<p>Some of the most closing cooperate communitiess including <a href="http://g0v.tw">G0V</a>, <a href="http://openstreetmap.tw">OSM</a>, <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Taiwan">Wikimedia Taiwan</a>, <a href="http://creativecommons.tw/%3Cbr%3E">Creative Commons Taiwan</a>,
<a href="http://ocf.tw">Open Culture Foundation</a>, <a href="http://sitcon.org/">SITCON</a> (Students Information Technology Conference) and <a href="http://www.wofoss.org/">WoFOSS</a> (Women in Free and Open Source Software in Taiwan).</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8m9XNb72_CjK5CKmuTPW30AQ-WF-h6EGgfvYidDSQsYPBX_FKQ_fkkeQspzX-YRIWPWEoJzAoRB_YeTpl1o3mjzbG0OqclKJcWlUBgT0qSi9sCLTR5tetvlfhzlbT-RqBTOzf7g/s9999/1489248915.png" alt="Half year status" style="max-width: 100%;"></div>
<p>One of the primary goals is to introduce Mozilla and our belief to new friends. In last six month (Sep-Feb), more than 410 visitors had learned about Mozilla on their first visit to the Space (out of 1800 visitors in 167 events).</p>
<p>We introduce Mozilla, Manifesto, our different projects, topics around internet health and policy, and new technologies we're building.</p>
<h2>Dev-rel</h2>
<p>Since Dec 2015, we put emphasis on developer relationship. There are 168 developer events, and we introduce Rust, Servo, HTML5, WebAPI and developer tools to more than 4000 local programmers.</p>
<h2>Social Engagement</h2>
<p>On social engagement, we had received 2550 Check-ins and 1100 Likes on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MozSpaceTPE/">Facebook</a> and <a href="http://https://foursquare.com/v/%E6%91%A9%E8%8C%B2%E5%B7%A5%E5%AF%AE-mozilla-community-space-taipei/5370b8a1498e8c14504d0007">Foursquare</a>.
And in fact, we didn't ask people to do it. These social channels had become a good way for us to promoting openness.</p>

<p>前情提要:蘋果日報 〈<a href="http://www.appledaily.com.tw/appledaily/article/headline/20161224/37496513/">踢爆 893萬善款只捐62萬 街頭勸募 協會竟挪用支薪</a>〉</p>
<p>其實台灣有很多 NPO 都很努力,也很需要資源協助,請不要因為少數 (?) 不良的組織與不作為的公務人員,就放棄對公益的堅持。</p>
<p>如果想要找可靠的捐款管道,可以根據個人關心的議題,捐給<a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/taiwan/zh/">綠色和平</a>、<a href="https://www.amnesty.tw/">國際特赦組織臺灣分會</a>、<a href="https://msf.tw/">無國界醫生</a>、<a href="https://www.worldvision.org.tw/">世界展望會</a> (飢餓三十那個)⋯⋯之類在國際上長久經營的單位。他們在路上的募款專員,都是受專業訓練的全職募款員工,不會是臨時的工讀生,或是濫用免費的服務學習學生人力,也會定期接受總部的檢核。</p>
<p>或是國內各領域,許多長久經營、具優秀成果記錄的團體,例如:環保組織(<a href="https://e-info.org.tw/">環境資訊協會</a>、<a href="https://www.tepu.org.tw/">環境保護聯盟</a>、<a href="https://www.sow.org.tw/">荒野保護協會</a>)、宗教組織(<a href="https://www.mch.org.tw/">門諾公益</a>、<a href="https://www.mustard.org.tw/">基督教芥菜種會</a>⋯⋯ps. 純潔協會不算!)、人權組織(<a href="https://www.tahr.org.tw/">台灣人權促進會</a>)、法政組織(<a href="https://www.laf.org.tw/">法律扶助基金會</a>、<a href="https://www.jrf.org.tw/">民間司法改革基金會</a>、<a href="https://www.ccw.org.tw/">公民監督國會聯盟</a>)、婦幼團體(<a href="https://www.ccf.org.tw/">家扶</a>、<a href="https://www.twrf.org.tw/">婦女救援基金會</a>、<a href="https://www.safe.org.tw/">靖娟</a>)、平權團體(<a href="https://hotline.org.tw/">同志諮詢熱線</a>、<a href="https://tapcpr.wordpress.com/">伴侶盟</a>)⋯⋯等等,列都列不完。</p>
<p>或者乾脆捐給<a href="https://www.unitedway.org.tw/">聯合勸募</a>,他們會根據各中小型公益團體的需求與每年計畫,去分配每年募得的款項,並且替大家把關。</p>
<p>重點是<em>眼見為憑</em>!正派的公益組織每季或每年都會出版成果與財務報告,內容包含計畫成果、善款與物資的使用狀況(例如<a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/taiwan/zh/publications/annual-reports/">綠色和平</a>、<a href="http://www.tahr.org.tw/annualreport">台權會</a>、<a href="https://www.jrf.org.tw/articles/824">民間司改會</a>),更甚者則會請會計師針對財務資訊進行簽證。如果這些都能做到,在社會上也看得到他們的實際活動成果,<del><a href="https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E8%8F%AF%E6%B0%91%E5%9C%8B%E7%B4%85%E5%8D%81%E5%AD%97%E6%9C%83#.E7.88.AD.E8.AD.B0">名字裡面又沒有中華民國,</a></del>應該就不太會有問題了。</p>
<p>有錢出錢有力出力,一起讓台灣更好,大家加油!</p>

<p>理想中用機器替代重複性工作的人力,不光是為了節省成本,也是為了解放人力,讓人能有餘暇做更多事,而不是為了把人淘汰掉。但是在這個過程中,勢必會有很多人受到衝擊。我們該力求的應該是能在轉換過程中,用節省下來的成本保障被替代的人。</p>
<p>收費員這件事最好的處理方式,是拿機器省下來的成本來協助安置這些人,幫他們找出處;第二好的做法是用機器省下來的成本來補貼這些人,讓他們自己找出路。遠通偏偏選了用「按照合約做一個安置的動作」來應付。</p>
<p>科技發展帶來的破壞性變革,對整個社會衝擊極大,一定要趁早小心應對。現在社會中還有太多純粹機械式,沒有創意性的工作,都會開始受到相關衝擊。更別說 AI 已經發展到連隨機性高、創意性高的工作也有能力執行了。</p>
<p>就像是可見的未來五到十年內,計程車一定會被自駕車取代,我們應該不想等到該時,再用「是你自己不早想到要轉行」的態度來面對這群司機,而是現在就該開始規劃相關政策,來趁早因應了。</p>
<p>現在聲援收費員,也是聲援未來被取代的自己啊。</p>
<p>至於該怎麼做,才能讓社會成功從目前的樣子,過渡到那個每個人都能自由發揮的世界?我是覺得把機器創造出來的生產剩餘,抽來重新分配給人們作為「無條件基本收入」是一個可行的方案(且世界各地都開始有人在提倡實驗了)。</p>
<p>不過這需要有很強的社會跟政府執行力。在台灣能不能成功,我還蠻悲觀的。</p>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Flovefonts%2Fposts%2F1129255023820687&width=500" width="500" height="223" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
</div>
<p style="text-align:center;">== 以下為本文於 9/1 晚上發佈,至 9/2 中午最後修改之原文 ==</p>
<h2 id="toc_1">justfont 歹勢啦</h2>
<p>先跟 justfont 的朋友們說聲不好意思,本文就事論事。對於你們手造台灣好字的堅持,我完全不改崇敬。大家交情依然。</p>
<h2 id="toc_2">釋出才是炎上的開始</h2>
<p>在 2015/10 創下台灣群募紀錄,近<a href="https://www.justfont.com/index/jinxuansponsor">九千三百人贊助,以超出原定目標 17 倍的成果</a>,集資近兩仟六百萬開發的「金萱」字型,昨天(2016/8/31)終於出貨了,但是出貨才是炎上的開始。</p>
<h2 id="toc_3">下載器下載好氣</h2>
<p>金萱採用近年流行的字體管理程式模式,贊助者下載時,需先安裝特別開發的<a href="https://www.justfont.com/index/aboutstore">「justfont store」字體管理程式</a>,才能下載安裝字型。</p>
<blockquote>
<p>❍ 字體簿找不到這套字型。<br>
→ 金萱字型是由程式進行安裝的,不會出現在字體簿裡面,但安裝完成後,可以使用在包括Word / <abbr title="本段保留原文中的 typo">Execel / illastrator</abbr> 等軟體內皆可正常使用。</p>
</blockquote>
<p>雖然 Adobe 的 <a href="https://typekit.com/">Typekit (Creative Cloud)</a> 與 <a href="https://www.fonts.com/web-fonts/google">Google Font(Skyfont)</a>也是採用此模式,但與上述兩者有一點很不同:Adobe CC 或 Skyfont 下載安裝字型後,可不需開啟常駐程式,仍可正常使用安裝好的字型,但 justfont store 需時時開啟,才可正常使用金萱字型。</p>
<p>除此限制外,justfont store 目前問題真的不少:Mac 版需 OS X 10.11.3 才可正常使用、Windows 版完全無法下載字型……最離譜的是,在 Mac 上,就算已經正常下載好字體,但 Adobe 系列軟體看不到也用不到(是已知的 bug,相信 justfont 很快就會解決)。</p>
<p>然後 Mac 上那個常駐的下載器,對比其他程式都走黑色系,顏色實在很突兀,不美啊…</p>
<p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH6KeGpAlOxPZADNM2LNp4TqhDR7-UKg3eMWzGkYzftZ__sE27srT8dYpL7zAASzZ0fISlfwEhqPI3Nqwgoljwbu4dQiPHIU_uhnbkalu0e1aTRTRPNUSCaDqHO8CFGAEO8mOknw/s1600/_%25E5%25B8%25B8%25E9%25A7%2590%25E7%25A8%258B%25E5%25BC%258F.png" alt=“常駐程式” /></p>
<p>最後,根據今日(9/1)收到的說明信件,Linux 完全被放棄了。</p>
<blockquote>
<p>❍ 是否有支援 linux 版本?<br>
→ 目前以支援 Windows/MAC 為主,Linux 因版本非常多,目前還沒有支援的規劃,如果您沒有可以安裝的Windows/MAC電腦,可以寫信給我們,我們會退費給您。</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 id="toc_4">實體光碟</h2>
<p style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_vJL-6EwpZjFz_KyFJVlt41ePZ1TKoDcbVkRACav_DT2ElRQMopGtraIfYNPDzmA7pxbNNMmWteS6MRKV0J2wu3B-OPiwqLpXKf9cjWJpOe34ZyzRQM9zAsJHQXXaUV_tJ4tdug/s320/_%25E8%25B4%258A%25E5%258A%25A9%25E6%2596%25B9%25E6%25A1%2588.png" width="241" alt=“贊助方案” /></p>
<p>贊助方案中包含一片實體光碟,有些人認為說,無法正常下載沒關係,等實體光碟總行了吧。</p>
<blockquote>
<p>另外實際的光碟內容,與線上取得的內容會是相同的,光碟內容包括安裝程式,安裝說明書以及調理指南</p>
</blockquote>
<p>晴天霹靂的是,光碟裡面也不會有字型檔,只會有安裝程式… #是要拿來當擺飾嗎</p>
<h2 id="toc_5">DRM 與不到一天的保護效力</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>❍ 為什麼不直接提供字型檔,用傳統方式安裝<br>
→ 金萱字型預計在 2017年10月完成3分糖版本,到2018年10月完成7分糖版本,完成後將會自動出現在您的授權列表字型中。<br>
→ 金萱這套字型有承諾後續會增加贊助者姓名的異體字,以及替換字符的功能,都會以自動更新方式處理。<br>
→ 可以做較好的字型版權保護,也保障正版購買者的權益。</p>
</blockquote>
<p>其實金萱會選擇這種方式釋出,也不是很難了解。除勉強可說得上是優點的「自動更新」之外,講白了就是想防盜版而已。</p>
<p>跟現在常見的 DRM 電子書與電子雜誌等應用不同,字型本就是很難版權保護的東西。電子書廠商可針對書本身加密,再讓用戶透過專用閱讀程式來看;但字型為了要讓不同作業系統上的萬千種軟體都可正常使用,無法對檔案格式本身加上保護(不然就會像現在發生 Adobe 軟體認不出金萱的狀況)。一旦用戶取得該字體的 ttf 或 otf 檔案,就可隨意複製流傳,原作者相對完全無能為力。</p>
<p>無論如何,安裝程式還是得要下載解開正常的字型檔到電腦中,再運用某種方法讓作業系統能辨認到。Adobe CC 與 Skyfont 都很乾脆的直接將字型檔放入作業系統的 font 資料夾,除亂數檔名外沒有其他保護。相對的,justfont store 推測則是以動態連結的方式,讓作業系統在 store 程式開啟時,才能辨認出金萱,讓一般應用程式取用。</p>
<h2 id="toc_6">各平台取得字型檔的方式</h2>
<p>有鑑於以上特性,想要透過特定程式來保護字型,幾乎無法做到。事實上,在釋出後不到一天內,也已經有網友在噗浪上提供 Mac 與 Linux 上取出與下載字型的方法了。</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.plurk.com/p/ltcoac">Mac 上抓出字型的方式</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.plurk.com/p/ltedb8">Linux 上的 Ruby 版下載程式</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.plurk.com/p/lteh0b">Linux 與 Mac上,有 Ruby 怎麼可以沒有的 Python 版下載程式</a></li>
<li>Windows 的話…… #先跟隔壁 copy 好了啦</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_7">#既然無法有效保護,又何必集贊助者怒氣</h2>
<p>相信講到這裡,很多人都會聯想到 Windows 上「你可能已經成為正版軟體的受害者」,或者幾年前台灣單機遊戲廠商愛用的 starfuck 保護程式,讓正版用戶不能玩,反而需要上線找免光碟、抓硬碟版等不如歸去玩盜版的景況。</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fbobchao%2Fposts%2F10154236487765219&width=500" width="500" height="209" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
</div>
<p>此一階段會用到金萱的人,都是當初願意投資、贊助金萱開發的忠實支持者。搞個 DRM 措施讓大家用的這麼不開心,結果只有半天的防盜效力,真的有必要嗎?如果學學微軟與 BSA,換種角度將盜版當作是最有效的宣傳(與營利)管道,能不能反過來創造更高的商業利益?</p>
<h2 id="toc_8">好棒棒的 Social DRM 不用嗎</h2>
<p>其實還是有比較合理的 DRM 措施。以電子書廠商為例,有些廠商其實不限制讀者複製分享書籍,而是採用在頁面上加上浮水印、版權頁標示購買者姓名等方式,以抑制無斷分享的行為,讓「共享」能限制在親朋好友間使用,把被拷貝的內容轉成「最有效的宣傳媒介」。</p>
<p>此一方法稱作「Social DRM」,也是我原本認為金萱會採用的方式。</p>

<p>既然字型檔本身無法避免複製,不如將個別贊助者的名稱資訊等寫入字型檔中,讓用戶了解「請不要任意分享給他人」。同時還能分析線上的盜版檔案,找出是那一位購買者流出的。</p>
<p>雖然只要透過 FontForge 等軟體就能輕易避開此一限制,但 DRM 本就只是防君子不防小人,仰賴的是用戶的良心與愛護。如果能毅然決然放棄現在已證實無效的安裝器,改採此法,或許能激起更多贊助者的熱情,也能一舉兩得,同時實踐募資承諾呢。(請繼續看下去)</p>
<h2 id="toc_9">募資承諾要記得</h2>

<h2 id="toc_10">開源領域等著你</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.flyingv.cc/projects/8250/posts/6362">在 2015/9/9 的募資進度報告中</a>,金萱團隊也曾提到將運用資源,貢獻開源領域等語:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>除了將舉行至少 50 場的字型講座與製作紀錄片以外,也將導入更多字型設計的教育資源,……將從改善既有開源字型如「思源黑體」或「花園明朝體」為起點,打造一套品質更佳的開源中文字型對外釋出……</p>
<p>開源字型開發者與付費字型創作者的理念是殊途同歸的,都是為了更好的字型環境而努力。除了積極參與並協助開源社群……</p>
</blockquote>
<p>我了解金萱以相對小型的團隊,挑戰這麼大規模的專案(目前已造 14,157 字),同時間還得巡迴各地舉辦講座等回饋活動,的確非常辛苦。</p>
<p>但,既然受了這麼多人的支持,也自願做出了以上承諾,請務必記得以上承諾,<a href="https://www.plurk.com/p/lsz8y9">開源社群都是非常單純的工程師,大家都是十分期待的</a>。</p>

This is our 3rd time joining the event, and we had tried 3 different forms of participation, here I would like to share a bit about it.</p>
<h2 id="toc_1">HKOSCon</h2>
<p><a href="https://2016.opensource.hk/">Hong Kong Open Source Conference</a> is annual open source conference in Hong Kong, co-hosted by 3 communities, <a href="http://www.cota.hk/">HKCOTA</a>, <a href="http://www.linux.org.hk/">HKLUG</a> and <a href="https://opensource.hk/">Open Source Hong Kong</a>. </p>
<p>One of the event's characteristic is that HKOSCon is formed by volunteers and students, not by for-profit company (which is pretty similar to <a href="http://coscup.org">COSCUP</a>, another open source conference in Taiwan). </p>
<p>Actually, according to one of the funder (and Mozilla Rep) <a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/sammyfung/">Sammy Fung</a> said, we can think it as a smaller (around 500 ppls) and more internationalized (English-based) version of COSCUP, which have around 2k participants and use Chinese as main language.</p>
<p>According to my observation, participants in HKOSCon is a combination of local (Hong Kong) enginners and students, speakers and students from Taiwan, and foreign speakers.</p>
<h2 id="toc_2">2014 - Chinese Mozillians Unite</h2>
<h3 id="toc_3">Booth and Forum Session</h3>
<p>2014 (March 29) is our first time to participating in HKOSCon. We tried to gather 8 Reps from Hong Kong (2), Taiwan (3) and China (3) together in the conference. We host a typical Mozilla community booth, a forum (“Mozilla communities in Chinese-speaking regions”) and a private meetup to discuss various topics about building Mozilla communities in the region.</p>
<p>Hong Kong is a special place that is 1) accessable by people from both Taiwan and China, without many political problems and limitations, 2) use both Chinese / English as primary language, and 3) close to all major east-Asian cities, so it's pretty pratical to be choosen as the place that we all gathered. I also experience that <a href="https://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/">Wikimania 2013</a> (took place in Hong Kong Polytechnic University) also take the advantage to gathered many China / Taiwan contributors. Singapore has similar advantages but it just 4 times far away for us.</p>
<h3 id="toc_4">What worked and what didn't?</h3>
<p>The idea of unite the Mozillians from different places really works, and I believed that we need to do it more (re-engage MozCamp perhaps?) But next time if we want to take HKOSCon as a chance, we may need to plan a whole dedicated day for Mozillian meetup, to work longer besides participating inside confernece, to get into more detailed discussion. (which may look similar to <a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/e/leadership-summit-singapore-2016/">Leadership Summit</a> and <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=MozCamp+beta+india">MozCamp beta</a> in India?)</p>
<p>Here is my debrief about our participation in HKOSCon 2014,</p>
<ul>

</ul>
<h2 id="toc_5">2015 - Involved more Taiwanese Mozillians</h2>
<h3 id="toc_6">Booth and Workshop</h3>
<p>In 2015 (June 26-27), we take a different approach that bring more Taiwanese Mozillian to get involved to HKOSCon. Total 7 Mozillians (5 Reps) joined. This year we also focus our most effort on the booth, and I personally host a Webmaker workshop. </p>
<p>The theme of the booth is FoxYeah campaign, we asked people to <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/albums/72157652769606554">take selfie photos with 5 FoxYeah banners</a> and received stickers. Most participants already know Firefox and was our user, so we would like to recall their attention back to the core value of Firefox. </p>
<p>For the Webmaker workshop, due to the design of the room and session length, it's not really work out well. Also I feel that Webmaker is not really suitable for this developer-focus conference participants that it just too simple.</p>
<h3 id="toc_7">What worked and what didn't?</h3>
<p>Designing a more interactive booth event worked really good, we had interacting with many graceful people at the booth, and got more then 40 “FoxYeah photos”. </p>
<p>Webmaker workshop which focus on education and entering level of contributors not work. The main participants of HKOSCon are more engineer based (far more then COSCUP) and we need our workshop to be more technical for them.</p>
<p>Here is my debrief about our participation in HKOSCon 2015, you can also find the link of articles from other participants inside.</p>

</ul>
<h2 id="toc_8">2016 - Just focus on session</h2>
<p>This year, due to overwhelmed workload after London Allhands, I didn't pay as much planning effot as previous 2 years that can involved many participants together. Instead, I try just to focus on session, and keep it simple that only 3 TW Mozillians joined and gave 2 sessions, <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/irvinfly/my-mozilla-contributing-journey">debrief my journey of contributing in Mozilla</a> and <a href="https://blog.othree.net/log/2016/07/01/yajs-and-vim-syntax-highlight/">yajs.vim, JavaScript syntax highlight for VIM</a> by <a href="https://mozillians.org/u/othree/">Othree</a>, another speaker from TW community*.</p>
<p>Besides sessions from the community volunteer, there are another 2 from Mozilla paid-staff - <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Eir">Mozilla Eir</a>, connecting device topic by <a href="https://mozillians.org/zh-TW/u/khu/">Kevin Hu</a> and Fuzzing testing by <a href="https://mozillians.org/u/gkw/">Gary Kwong</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>Othree’s blog about HKOSCon 2016 (Chinese) - <a href="https://blog.othree.net/log/2016/07/16/hkoscon-2016/">HKOSCON 2016 : O3noBLOG</a></li>
</ul>
<h3 id="toc_9">What worked and what didn't?</h3>
<p>Because that we didn't set a booth, it's hard to evaluate how many attendees is interesting in participating Mozilla this time (compare to the previous 2 years that we had contributing forms at our booth). </p>
<p>But the Fuzzing and Othree's HTML5-related sessions, as well as my session did attach many people and I can feel overall better response then last year's workshop. Another reason of the better atmosphere at sessions may due to several OSS participating-related sessions had been organized next each other in schedule, and thus attached the right audiences.</p>
<h2 id="toc_10">And suggestion for the future...</h2>
<p>From our previous experiences, here I come up with some suggestions for next year,</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Bring in more foreign technical speakers</p>
<p>There are more developers in HKOSCon that is interesting in technical topics, engineering speaker can have better interaction in HKOSCon, things like “how we use Rust” or “How do we do Firefox release engineering” should do well there.</p></li>
<li><p>Booth is necessery</p>
<p>With only session, it's hard for us to interaction with all partcipants, booth does that well. Besides giving out stickers and demonstrating hardware / flyers, plan a simple event such as FoxYeah photo campaign in 2015 will please everyone. </p></li>
<li><p>7~10 Mozillians is good numbers for participation</p>
<p>We had around 10 Mozillians (excludes local HK Mozillians which are all dedicated to run HKOSCon) in both 2014 and 2015 HKOSCon, 5~7 of them are volunteers. It's enough to both manage a booth and give 3 to 5 sessions with this numbers, and the rate of Mozillians to all participants would be around 2%.</p></li>

<h1 id="toc_0">The characteristic</h1>
<p>There are different types of spaces with various characteristic, eg.</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors </li>
<li>scale of community</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors (transit difficulties)</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="toc_1">Different type of spaces</h1>
<p>Following is the <em>space</em> various in different type that we found in our expereinces and in different region, it may be a of community space (and probably also same for the community meeting).</p>
<p>Temporary (in time & venue) spaces</p>
<ul>
<li>Online space (forum / IM / IRC channels)</li>
<li>Kitchen (or school) table</li>
<li>Meet in coffee house</li>
<li>Hackathon & sprint in private apartment / meeting venue </li>
<li>Partnership with co-working space (eg., The Hub)</li>
<li>Cooperating / supporting existing hackerspace / makerspace</li>
</ul>
<p>Physically communtiy space</p>
<ul>
<li>Mozilla Community Spaces, eg., Taipei, Manila & Jakarta </li>
<li>Space inside Mozilla office</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_2">Online space (forum / IM / IRC channels)</h2>
<p>It was begin when some people who is interesting in promoting Mozilla and it’s various products gathering and meet online.</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 2~20</li>
<li>scale of community - 5~150</li>
<li>there will be much harder more then this numbers</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - 0</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - variously</li>
<li>distence of the contributors - withing country / same languages area</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - minimin</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_3">Kitchen (or school) Table</h2>
<p>Some people may want to meet face-by-face hacking / discussing frequenly</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 2~3</li>
<li>scale of community - 2~5</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - 0</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - various from weekly to monthly</li>
<li>distence of the contributors - closly, within city</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - minimum</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_4">Meet in coffee house</h2>
<p>If there are more contributors within in the city, they may able to meet weekly / bi-weekly / monthly and maybe more leisure with loose agenda ccording to the meeting frequency</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 5~10</li>
<li>scale of community - 5~30</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - some randemly</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - weekly to monthly</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors - within city</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - small, mainly a cup of coffee</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_5">Private apartment / meeting venue</h2>
<p>When more contributors focus on some contirbuting regions, they will run some hackathon / design sprint periodically</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 5~15</li>
<li>scale of community - 10~100</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - 0</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - quatyly / 6 months / yearly</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors - within country</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - medium each time</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_6">Partnership with co-working space (eg., The Hub)</h2>
<p>If there are some contributors or remoties work more frequenly and host more events, they may want to find a permanently / half-permanently space. We find that sometimes there are good cooperating and supporting from local co-working space.</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 3~10</li>
<li>scale of community - 20~</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - some</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - daily, bi-daily, weekly</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors - within city</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - small/medium monthly</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_7">Cooperating with existing hackerspace / makerspace</h2>
<p>Similar to the above co-working space, there may be some hackerspace / makerspace already exist and in good align with Mozilla’s mission, the community may like to join or get involved the venue.</p>
<p>We should have some application procedure at this stage, for communities who is interesting in get into next stage of pathway.</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 3~10</li>
<li>scale of community - 20~</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - more then 2</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - daily, bi-daily, weekly</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors - within city</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - small/medium monthly</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="toc_8">Physical Community Space</h2>
<p>After all this stage, the community now has more people and frequenly events and many meetups, they may want to get their own community spaces in order to better hosting and contributing. </p>
<p>The most important thing in this stage is that besides benefit Mozilla community, we want to also help / support other communities within the region, in order to better using the resource, and they most probably also under their early stage of this pathway.</p>
<p># of core contributors - 10~20
scale of community - 50~
# of non-Mozilla communities involved - 10 and more
meeting / event frequency - daily, bi-daily
density of the region / distence of the contributors - within city
resource invest from Mozilla and community - large monthly</p>
<h2 id="toc_9">Space inside Mozilla office</h2>
<p>If we have more and more remoties working at Mozilla during the growth of the Mozilla community, eventually we will set up a Mozilla office inside the area. It will be similar to the community spaces and have good community-staff relationship if we follow and grow alone the path.</p>
<ul>
<li># of core contributors - 20~35</li>
<li>scale of community - 100~</li>
<li># of non-Mozilla communities involved - 10 and more</li>
<li>meeting / event frequency - daily, bi-daily</li>
<li>density of the region / distence of the contributors - within city / country</li>
<li>resource invest from Mozilla and community - large monthly</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="toc_10">The pathway (aka. A River of Spaces)</h1>
<p>Above different kinds of space is a typical pathway we found in different communities and in our community's 10+ years experience. We had pass all of those stage (besides the office one), and some other communities may currently in one of the earlier stage.</p>

</div>
<p>It’s like the flow of the river from upper reach to the ocean, we can imaging the flow as the size of the community / the resource / the reach and the impact. Different communities are not necessery follow the same pathway but it should be somehow similer.</p>
<p>Thanks all of the Mozilla Community Space stewards in the session, especially Henrik, Gaspar, Nikos, Yofie who is in this discussion.</p>

<br />
Why is Focus stay so secret before Mozlando, even we NDA covered Mozillians know nothing about it before it on stage? How can "we" say something like "we will take Firefox OS ..." or "we will go..." without we even knowing it before the news and before someone on stage make the notice? Why is there more and more secret and non-public future feature of Firefox that we cannot find plan anywhere (eg., that "stream" things), And why could we took down all l10n-ed part of Webmaker (and even change it's name to Mozilla Learning without we had any discussion, and so far we still don't know anything about it's future's l10n strategy?)<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
we, we, we, we, we. How can Mozilla talk about “we” when “we” don’t even know what’s going on? - Elio </blockquote>
I'm pretty agree the echo from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/bobchao/posts/10153670620295219">BobChao's comment</a> to <a href="http://elioqoshi.me/en/2016/01/schrodingers-firefox-os/">Elio's blog post</a>. We had a serious problem here and we need a little more TRANSPARENT PROCEDURE to fix it, just as our manifesto indicated. "Transparent community-based processes promote participation, accountability and trust." And we does need some more participation now!irvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15161996249607084651noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9654230.post-52263311264987339912014-05-07T00:17:00.002+08:002016-03-17T11:55:57.725+08:00MozTW Steps - 服務學習專案規劃<p>目前各大學都有一堂服務學習必修課程,通常是安排在大一時且零學分(不影響成績),目的是想讓同學可以付出自己的時間(通常一學期 10~15 小時),協助各項公益計畫或團體,有益於社會且從中學習。</p>
<p>過去兩年中,MozTW 與<a href="http://ossacc.moe.edu.tw">教育部校園自由軟體中心(OSSACC)</a>合作,在交大與中央大學,執行了三學期的服務學習計畫,讓同學從翻譯 Mozilla 補助說明文章、推廣與說明影片、網頁開發技術文章、Firefox 套件與軟體的中文化…等等項目中選擇,運用自己的閒暇時間,對 Mozilla 專案做出些許貢獻,接觸並了解開源碼計畫的執行方式。</p>
<h2>MozTW Step</h2>
<p>三月時,MozTW 在台中舉辦了兩天一夜的 <a href="https://bobchao.makes.org/thimble/moztw-steps-2014-spring-proposal-zh-tw_">MozTW Steps</a> 活動,對於各專案計畫進行未來半年期的分析與討論。對於服務學習專案,我們也進行了一些規劃。這是討論時的海報,以下將會簡要說明。</p>
<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/13167374913" title="Planning - Service Learning by Irvin Chen, on Flickr"><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3677/13167374913_e7d89053bc_c.jpg" width="600" height="800" alt="Planning - Service Learning"></a></p>
<h2>計畫目的</h2>
<p>服務學習計劃的目的,主要有以下幾點:</p>
<ul>
<li>讓社群能接觸年輕一代的同學,傳達 Mozilla 理念給更多人</li>
<li>尋找認同且持續貢獻 Mozilla 專案的成員</li>
<li>推進 Firefox 補助說明文章翻譯完成度,協助更多使用者</li>
<li>增加相關影片的字幕,益於推廣的理念</li>
</ul>
<h2>過去成果</h2>
<p>我們簡要分析了一下過去的成果。共有 49 名同學參與,完成了 20 部宣傳短片字幕、38 篇 Firefox 補助說明文章、10 篇網頁開發技術文章、4 篇報導與 1 個 Firefox 套件的中文化。</p>
<p>過去的成果都整理於此:</p>
<ul>
<li>101 學年度
<ul>
<li><a href="http://moztw.org/events/nctuserv2012/">第一學期</a></li>
<li><a href="http://moztw.org/events/service2013/">第二學期</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>102 學年度
<ul>
<li><a href="http://moztw.org/events/service2013q4/">第一學期</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>近期參與對象</h2>
<p>本年度服務學習的合作對象,包含交大資工的大一同學約 15 人;另外中央大學也由 Angelboy 號招資訊社團中有興趣的同學進行。</p>
<p>下學期可能的對象,除交大外,另由黯鴉在協調中原大學的老師與同學參加。</p>
<h2>資源</h2>
<p>在推動服務學習計劃時,我們主要有兩個資源可給予同學:</p>
<ul>
<li>OSSACC 協助核發的服務證書</li>
<li>我們可簽發英文的 Mozilla 貢獻證書</li>
</ul>
<h2>挑戰</h2>
<p>服務學習計劃的主要挑戰有二:</p>
<h3>如何找人</h3>
<p>要將服務學習推廣到一個科系,首先要有該科系負責該課程的教授認可,而與教授接洽、聯繫則需要各科系的在學同學協助。</p>
<h3>如何帶領</h3>
<p>專案執行時,會先讓同學選定有興趣的項目,再由我們寄送「如何進行」的說明文件。同學做完後我們則需要編輯、修定、掌握成品的品質。</p>
<p>這方面則面臨能協助與修訂成果的人不夠多,對成果與品質的掌握度不足的問題。</p>
<h3>持續貢獻</h3>
<p>每學期的計畫結束後,我們尚無進行後續追蹤,無法了解參與的同學是否仍持續貢獻,也因而無法有效擴大貢獻者基礎。</p>
<h2>解決方案</h2>
<p>針對上述問題,我們則想到了一些解決的方法。</p>
<h3>製作計畫網頁</h3>
<p>在「如何找人」的問題上,透過製作「服務學習專案網頁」的方式,彙整成果,並且加上「如有興趣參與,歡迎聯繫…」的聯絡資訊。一方面如果有教授看到感興趣,即可與我們連上線;另一方面,整理出更清楚的相關資訊,也可讓想協助推動的同學,更容易提供負責教授參考。</p>
<h3>校園大使</h3>
<p>我們發現服務學習計劃,與 Mozilla Taiwan 公司已執行兩屆的「<a href="http://mozilla.com.tw/community/student/">Firefox 校園大使(FSA)</a>」,可以構成相輔相成的雙環。參加過服務學習的同學,我們可以推薦他們參加校園大使,更加深入 Mozilla 的文化與內涵;而歷屆的校園大使,對 Mozilla 已有充足的了解,除可成為協助新同學進行服務學習的角色,也可協助我們聯繫各科系的負責老師,找尋新的合作對象。</p>
<h2>行動計畫</h2>
<ol>
<li>招募十位歷屆的校園大使,協助他們成為服務學習的 Mentor。</li>
<li>聯繫參加過服務學習的同學,推薦他們參與校園大使計畫。</li>
<li>尋求一至兩人的協助,製作服務學習計劃網頁。</li>
</ol>

The following are 2 blog posts from <a href="https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/medicalwei/">Yao Wei</a> and <a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/dwchiang/">Ernest</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://mozlinks.moztw.org/2015/07/showing-off-firefox-in-hkoscon-2015.html">Mozilla Links 正體中文版: Showing off Firefox in HKOSCon 2015</a><br>

<p>日前, <a href="http://reps.mozilla.org/u/Irvin/">我</a>與 <a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/dwchiang/">Ernest</a>、<a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/bobchao/">BobChao</a>、<a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/orin/">Orin</a>、<a href="https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/RJ/">RJ</a>、<a href="https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/medicalwei/">魏藥</a>、<a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/petercpg/">Peter</a> 等共七位 MozTW 成員,一同前往香港開源年會,並擺設 Mozilla 攤位。關於活動的情形,歡迎閱讀以上魏藥及 Ernest 的直擊文章。</p>
<p>Here I will add some of my own experience & observation. <br/>
以下紀錄一些我個人的經驗與觀察。</p>
<h2>Booth 攤位</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/19175020222/in/album-72157654694304708/" title="MozTW Mozillians #FoxYeah @ HKOSCon2015"><img src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/488/19175020222_9f4f637f54_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="MozTW Mozillians #FoxYeah @ HKOSCon2015"></a> <br/>
(TW Mozillians with <a href="https://reps.mozilla.org/u/sammyfung/">Sammy Fung</a>, Bob & Ernest is not in this photo) <br/>
(台灣成員與香港的 Sammy,Bob 與 Ernest 不在這張照片中)</p>
<p>Create big banners from <a href="https://foxyeah.mozilla.org/">FoxYeah stickers</a> to demostrate, is indeed good try on our booth. We can take chance to sharing ideas with people on those topics of banner (security, customize...), and ask people to choose their favorite one to take photo, has really positive feedback.</p>
<p>將 FoxYeah 標語製作成大扛棒在攤位上展示,並讓人拿著最喜歡的標語拍照,是一個準備簡單,卻非常有笑點的小活動。不但容易吸引目光,也成為與參觀者的交流話題。</p>
<p><a data-flickr-embed="true" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/19240598475/in/album-72157654694304708/" title="Thomas #FoxYeah @ HKOSCon2015"><img src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/470/19240598475_32638abfce_z.jpg" width="480" height="640" alt="Thomas #FoxYeah @ HKOSCon2015"></a> <br/>
(We even got a "Gandi love Firefox" big thumb up from <a href="http://gandi.net/">Gandi.net</a>'s Asia COO Thomas)<br>
(我們甚至獲得了 Gandi 的 Asia COO Thomas 的「Gandi Love Firefox」認證)</p>
<p>Hong Kong local mozillians were basically all workers for HKOSCon, so we had to self-help on organize booth. Carry those Firefox OS devices and Firefox souvenir were not easy - the stickers are so-heavy. We had to separate them to everyone to carry in luggage when flight. Printer big stickers and make slogan banner on sight is good idea.</p>
<p>香港當地的 Mozillians 都是 HKOSCon 的主辦成員,我們只好自力救濟。要把這麼多展示品(包含近十台 Firefox OS 裝置、與各類 Firefox 紀念品)從台灣帶到香港,的確是蠻麻煩的一件事,貼紙卡片又重又多,要讓大家平均分攤裝行李箱托運。印貼紙跟買瓦楞版當場製作,又快效果又好。</p>
<p>We also got 21 filled contribute forms at the booth. Hope that we can get some more contributors at Hong Kong. (BTW, on our contribute form, we had various contributed area for people to choose their prefer, and most of people select multiple area. We should improve our [online form](http://mozilla.org/contribute) to accepting multiple choices too.)</p>
<p>本次攤位上,我們亦收集到 21 名有意貢獻者的聯絡方式。希望未來在香港能有更多 Mozilla 貢獻者。</p>
<h2>Webmaker Workshop 工作坊</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/19052959598/in/album-72157654694304708/" title="Webmaker Workshop @HKOSCon2015"><img src="https://farm1.staticflickr.com/486/19052959598_08db6c1aea_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="Webmaker Workshop @HKOSCon2015"></a></p>
<p>Host a Webmaker workshop is one of my main topic in HKOSCon. But the lecture room is under "speak" mode, and not too easy for workshop that it's hard to see how attendees' status. Fortunately that my content is half exercise and half lecture intro.</p>
<p>主講 Webmaker 工作坊,是這次參與 HKOSCon 的主要任務。可惜的是,雖然參加者大多都有攜帶電腦,但是演講形式的座位安排,不太好掌握台下參加者的參與狀況,還是不太適合工作坊。幸好我準備的內容是實作與演講兼具。</p>
<p>This is also my first time to connecting Keynote, iPad (remote control and viewing keynote speaker note), Firefox, iPhone (share internet to mac), Reflector 2 (receive Chrome Cast mirrow from Mi2S), and Mi2S Android phone all together on stage. Perhaps the environment is too complicated thus my Mac hang for twice and it tooks me 5 mins to reboot when in 2/3 of workshop. Too bad that it cost me too much time and I cannot play last video in slide. I'll need to simplified the environment next time.</p>
<p>這也是我第一次同時使用 Keynote、iPad(連動 Keynote 看講者備忘)、Firefox、iPhone(分享網路給 Mac,再作熱點給 iPad 與 Android 手機)、Reflector 2(用於接收 Chrome Cast Mirrow 展示 Android 手機的 Webmaker App)與一台小米 2S Android 手機等六項裝置與軟體,在進行到約 2/3 時,遭遇到電腦當機了兩次,浪費了約五分鐘,讓最後一片短片來不及播放。環境太複雜,下次最好還是精簡一點,避免再次發生。</p>
<p>Here is my workshop slide, <br/>
以下是這次的投影片:</p>

<h2>Accommodation 住宿</h2>
<p>Our accommodation "<a href="http://www.booking.com/hotel/hk/royalpark.html">Royal Park Hotel</a>" is really really valuable! Locating in central Shatin, 10 mins walk from train station all inside mall (cool and easy for luggage!), half hour metro to downtown, 1 hour Airport bus directly to hotel door. The best is price, 4 star hotel with large room (twice as large as hotel room in Kowloon) equipment with bathtub, the price only about 130 USD per 4pax room per night. (Almost same price to 2pax room.)</p>
<p>這次我們的住宿「<a href="http://www.booking.com/hotel/hk/royalpark.html">帝都酒店</a>」真的非常超值!極力推薦給四人以上一起到香港的朋友。地點位於沙田市中心,沙田車站約只要走十分鐘,全程都是室內商場(又涼又好拉行李)。搭地鐵不用半小時就能進到九龍,且 A41 機場巴士一小時直達飯店門口。最棒的是,四星級飯店,兩間四人房共定七晚,稅前一晚不到一千港幣(跟兩人房價格差不多),而且房間是九龍飯店的兩倍大以上(甚至有浴缸!)</p>irvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15161996249607084651noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9654230.post-79975831527433072322014-05-01T11:56:00.002+08:002015-06-17T18:51:24.797+08:00MozTW 為何要堅持社群獨立性—智財局封網法案的案例 The case of MozTW campaign against internet regulation bill<p>Brief for Mozillians: The slides is about an local campaign we ran, against a SOPA-like bill in last June (2013) in Taiwan. I'd like to share this experience for all, to get the idea that what can we do as a Mozillians and a Mozilla community, to dealing with these kinds of political issues for protect internet freedom.</p>
<p>MozTW 作為一個 Mozilla 的在地社群,維持獨立性一直是我們堅持的一件事情。</p>
<p>Mozilla 的社群成員多數有某種「Mozilla 如果違反 Mozilla 宣言,我們身為社群的一份子必群起反對」的原則,從各種爭議,例如先前的「<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=tile+firefox+ads">首頁廣告</a>」、「<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Brondon+Eich+mozilla">Brondon Eich 的正反爭議</a>」中都可以看到。當然我們 MozTW 也不例外,從<a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/moztw-general/%E5%8F%B0%E7%81%A3%E7%89%88%7Csort:date">反對 Firefox 台灣版行為追蹤</a>、應對 <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/moztw-general/%E8%BD%89%E5%9D%80">mozilla.org/zh-TW 的強制轉址</a>上,都可以看出我們身為 Mozilla 社群,維持獨立性、堅持應有價值的意義。</p>
<p>去年(2013 年)六月的<a href="http://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-hant/%E7%B6%93%E6%BF%9F%E9%83%A8%E6%99%BA%E6%85%A7%E8%B2%A1%E7%94%A2%E5%B1%80%E7%A0%94%E6%93%AC%E5%B0%81%E9%8E%96%E5%A2%83%E5%A4%96%E4%BE%B5%E6%AC%8A%E7%B6%B2%E7%AB%99%E4%BA%8B%E4%BB%B6">智財局封網事件</a>,也是 MozTW 社群獨立行動以堅持 Mozilla 信念的代表案例。在那之後,我們真的一直沒有空把相關的前因後果整理出來。趁著這週在舊金山參加 Mozilla 基金會全員會議,跟其他人分享相關案例的機會,整理了一份投影片。歡迎各位留言<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/moztw-general">或到 moztw-general</a> 提供意見與建議。</p>
<p>長久一來一直礙於人力不足,其實社群還可以做的更多、還有更多事可以做的更好,<a href="http://moztw.org/contribute/">歡迎有興趣協助的人一起加入</a>。</p>

<p>During the <a href="http://irvin.sto.tw/2014/05/mozillians-in-hong-kong-open-source.html">HKOSC</a>, we reps managed to find some time in and have a discussion on various topics, include the status of the community and volunteers in each region, the recruit and event effort, and the current status of cooperation between communities and each of local Mozilla offices.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/105205172@N02/13866183615" title="DSC07044 by Orin Chen, on Flickr"><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7321/13866183615_140086be0f_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="DSC07044"></a></p>
<p>We all agree that we should put more effort on China this year, the huge growing market but with less reps, contributors and Mozillians. It has more large opportunity and definitely is important to our 1M Mozillians goal. But there is always some difficulties, for example,</p>
<h2>Difficulties</h2>
<ul>
<li>Most of the students know Mozilla as "Manufacture of Firefox" but not "Opportunity to contribute".</li>
<li>The pace of life in eastern part of China (most residential area) is really busy and hurry, that people and may treat "volunteer" as somehow waste of time.</li>
<li>Great firewall to block and slowing down most of the communication channel.</li>
<li>The English barrier to contributing direct to our projects.</li>
</ul>
<p>And we do come up with some strategy and directions,</p>
<h2>Strategy</h2>
<ul>
<li>The recruitment should concentrating on university students (just like when most of us joined Mozilla.)</li>
<li>We should try building a structure that non-English local contributors can become reps, and communicate with each other/mentor in local language, reduce the language barrier. (Specially speaking in English).</li>
<li>We should have a Rep mentor(s) who is able to coordinate the regional effort, helping and mentoring the local reps. Let them be the bridge of local Reps and council.</li>
<li>First priority is get at least a Rep in every province. Help and train them on recruiting and planning events, coordinate local effort, let them be the bridge of local contributors to us. (There are 28 provinces and municipality cities in Mainland China.)</li>
</ul>
<br>
<p>We do have some strengthen point in China and overall Chinese region that we could leverage,</p>
<h2>Strengthen</h2>
<ul>
<li>We have Beijing and Taipei, two local MoCo offices with resources and people on marketing and engagement who can help.</li>
<li>We have the experienced MozTW community to support the effort, share the structure, on-boarding and marketing materials they build.</li>
<li>We have long-time usage history in China. (As I know we have Firefox forums even before Mozilla Online set up).</li>
</ul>
<p>IMHO possibly next step (please advice),</p>
<h2>Action Plans</h2>
<ul>
<li>Coordinate/encourage Mozillians/Reps continuance visiting China, give talk to encourage contributors on whether big or small meetups (as last year (2013) we have Gen Kanai / WillianQ), especially who can speech Chinese.</li>
<li>We can plan and have someone give a series of speeches around main universities in China, get the students knowing more about Mozilla, and encourage them to contribute.</li>
<li>Get someone become rep mentors and mentoring new contributors.</li>
<li>Build a Chinese Mozillians mailing list to coordinate things across local communities. Go toward a cross-region language-based community.</li>
<li>Seeking for opportunities/Mozillians in other Chinese speaking region (Singapore, Malaysia...)</li>
<li>Maybe try planning some efforts with university students in central China cities (most of the general visitor would go to east economy develop region).</li>
</ul>

<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJJJCak0PTlZqivLhQU7jxTbunVEuEHD49dlHjIcKkwAx9xsAaSp3BQNGey0mErUt1R1_1qNe94yd2kbuKEafncfBd4cm_QwGArgbXhKjdl3YTTiypeYWaDQyYpKlNpviIA0A-LQ/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_02.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>In the beginning, I'm going to give a brief intro of Mozilla Taiwan community. Established in 2004, making contribution by maintaining product localization and & localized product sites, MozTW turned out to be a project-oriented community: including online/offline marketing campaigns, evangelism talks, localizations, and contribution in different Mozilla projects.</p>
<h1>The challenges of MozTW: From my point of view </h1>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmDY38aQhQGxdyYI0Uca6nYBQauHe7HmODppHrEpVZ59jYzb5EU0oh27yXaDkzs-zYCJTo0DE_J1Qh0ID_IukfKq64aLLy-__QXXfFE6auXwpEgL1hPZQ2l9Uw6mmxf3PnTIxXxA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_04.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Before I start of the challenge part, I'm going to make a DISCLAIMER: <click> Ideas below may or may not representing other MozTW member's idea. This is what I observed from my own contributing experience, others might not think it's a big problem, or the problem might not exist at all.</p>
<h2>Community age problem</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHWrdPrlmX4vBX041KyZxBSIUR99tgyTp9qeLmW6oxHWfQ0kDxat0-rcLvevG0eTHJLlz6HMXosmZMpqbXWY1X3I0R_DQBtqmFXCtNZuz1rlfrZ0bbcBWLmka1iJJmGTdhL6Z02w/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_05.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>As time passes, if a community doesn't grow with enough younger participation, the average age of community contributors becomes older. Also you'll find out you have no that much time after graduated, and the same situation happened across all the active folks of your community.
Many of the communities are formed by a herd of college students, so you can foresee such a problem in 4~5 years if the community were newly burned in your region.</p>
<h2>Market Changes</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix7lIQ5y8C0KqLQTlkp5WPIcolY662FqOTFNsn_32im-vny7dyMTJG2aijfSS_yHxip1cXcjw4ec7WyKwBf45df-xChgwbybsnIDkSp6cDN6o54KDnWWfMR5ytL6ZO7Ss4xzrtiw/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_06.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>I feel that the change of the browser market / OSS environment makes us harder to recruit these days.
When we begin, there are only several browsers in the market, Firefox represents innovation and creativity, it's a little rebel and hacks culture, it's cool. At that time when a people wanted to join some internet interesting group and contribute in a non-programming field, you don't have so many OSS/software communities choices like today. This day there are other browsers which thinks to be cooler than the old fox across techies, the opportunity to contribute, with the spirit of the social action are much more.</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMVlXc7aeu85a_l6H82mFaPt2462K6fTdLp4AyyvRupI70Q3sKbPZnjaD5oiFlcdwP3yu41QM993vbPTcbFWv0K6gEceuXd0-rnkeZmbbeeMKyp_PiRcAIOWH95_c96GN6k_qfyA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_07.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Take events for example, 5 years before, there were not so many events for geeks like our Firefox Party in Taiwan, I think it's easier to gather hundreds of attendees and have much attention to our campaigns, but it's much harder today. Taiwan has population about 20 millions, and In this year we have more than 10 houndries attendee conferences, subjetive on OSS and web. The growth of internet and globalization OSS projects also have some effect, one can easily find events, communities, reach and contribute remotely to non-local project. I think it's make us harder on our recruition today.</p>
<h2>The "Official Mozilla" problem</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheiuB3G0nD-s3yfX5pdsDQFbXs4tu2EfSvy0KKj6CyRRILeyb53Zi4aU1qYXYcuNKZ_VR1dsWUt4hMAdx4a70GMnroSUCQUd4De6J5DlBlxC6XdFIL13JALM8oIUSj3q5-m-mELQ/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_08.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>We now face challenges from new "official" player on Firefox marketing / representative, and I expect company is going to grow its new community in the marketing strategy.</p>
<p>Mozilla office in Taipei was established last year right after MozCamp, before that, we had discussed some of the problems we may face across core contributors of Taiwan. In this year, I have seen many things we were worried at that time, which I don't really want to see, resulting in much more challenges. Which may happened again, if Mozilla is opening new office, then we may want to avoid them.</p>
<h3> 1. You're no longer the "Mozilla representative" </h3>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1Gpnyxf9AvXrSRbNW1iG9uO5EB_lrN1jaz5r7y9oSvFgz9mDBizSoE268MgYDh2V7PKWSJ4_vKJG8nEXDxP9lAh0O_8W_SUC58H5k2IERUj-gZOjKwoVbpkD6aL2DetdTAs7o3w/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_09.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>MozTW was the de facto "Mozilla representative" before. After the local company opens, when people want to contact Mozilla, they'll directly contact the company, and since it's related to end-use marketing, if the information doesn't been bounced to community, which means much less co-operation opportunities and much less eyes attracted on community.</p>
<p>And there is a branding problem, if your community use "Mozilla-country" as your name, you may have to prepare for the naming transition, for that this is the offices' formal name. In fact, we don't really have the choice deal with this situation, this problem had been foreseen by BobChao, our previous community liaison many years ago, so we'd used MozTW and Mozilla Taiwan Community bi-branding for years. But when we actually deal with the situation today, it's still hard to come out with a good enough branding strategy, weather to promote the "Mozilla Taiwan Community" on our events? Or to use "Mozilla Community" only? Or using "MozTW" preventing distinguish to "Mozilla Taiwan", the official name of office?</p>
<p>As my own observing, people just couldn't understand. In fact, they don't find there is several Mozilla depart at all.</p>
<h3>2. You're losing your volunteer while the company recruit</h3>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ThzlcLA0sbAONOTp70iB3-WTTpEa-L6MPK6WDDAZYUNkWq1mMryKwqFZMr4CjNIpA5Db0EZj4KGBKvq5AYNZ6u3oDffgBNqBFxUwhzAhUDsh-Uy7JLKabqeXtm_KUqtDhraLUA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_10.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Once the office is open, you may find out your hardly-working community guru to be hired, and they had much less time contribute to community projects. The better they had done before, the harmful it would be. In conjunction with the age's problem of community and recruitment problem, it'll became hardest challange you'd like to deal with.</p>
<p>It's true that the problem will naturally begin to exist as the time pass, whether the offices open or not. Community always lose core contributors as they graduate from school and if they are not luckily enough to find the job which can have enough leisure time to contribute, but I was hoping it may be difference when it comes to Mozilla. It's seems that it's my too idealistic wishes when our community contributors joined the local office.</p>
<h3> 3. You'll see competing campaign/sites/community appear </h3>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV0223oLpK151mbZp-YrrLrzIVfSHVPLKEYYCAgvPjxxqo0xsqwi-y2HMvlgrnsJiO_xNPaBk6XOk3iSKPeuvNcLpakSoQNqa2aYgSvqIRQ59uEGFGmBSSdQZX4CKerCqFaYrs0w/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_11.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>While the local company doing end-user promotions, as time passed, many events/campaigns rolled out one by one. You'll begin to see the competing projects to what your community were doing unavoidable.</p>
<h4>Campaign</h4>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFrkA65jpPWJxLnNWvFBHbWY_xl1Rb0-yXkvNWgmnnvUjj_Slp5go3eZxBxXVMKTxesASd9syr0vHCL5A1jg7SV6W0K1SWuqso6YoPlRbpKoBQFSfCr2hnymaLBaAy5KUWpZ-GoA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_12.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>From online campaigns such as facebook pages to offline events such as workshops and speeches, I'm frustrated for that with the full time employees, engineers and budget supplement, their campaign seems eventually more successful than what communities did. <- their campaign would be probably more successful than what communities did. ??</p>
<p>We used to translate news from Mozilla and Mozillian's blogs to a Trad. Chinese Mozilla Links, since it's a community volunteer project, we could not control the effectiveness but quality. Nowadays, when local office can publish the "latest" news in synchronize with Mozilla Press blog, that's the efficiency we can never achieve ever.
How could our campaign compete with the company's similar one, for that you can only exchange your sleeping time while they're working on a daily basis? It turned to be no choice but to give up translating and spreading the news, also on many campaigns which local office may be interested in, and choose what they're not.</p>
<h4>Websites</h4>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiQGykzgpyVXqcU8Q8bnl91WhFzrEYoHNkMcmKfG1H97Nn16SMvCJp17XjgEUvH_TSwBVg4WBruTzDiSCCgsPUwYN45htTvkcv8NEAMjzWQRdCh769nhCrDCo4nsP20Fo9cty6gw/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_13.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Second is about websites. After the local company opened their site, your community portal are no longer the second Mozilla sites anymore. Users will see 1) localized mozilla.org, 2) local office's mozilla.com.country and 3) community's site. All 3 different sites are shared with similar contents and same propose - to spreading information about Mozilla, and the same action - to provide Firefox download. If one user could found that there are more than one site exist, he'll be frustrated with them no doubt. I think most of the users don't really figure out there are.</p>
<p>Even further, one day you may surprisingly found that mozilla.org been redirected to local office's website, instead of the normal localized mozilla.org in your language. It has not happened on zh-TW yet, and I'll never eager to see it happened. Why bother to do so when l10n contributors are taking good care of mozilla.org, when it comes to One Mozilla conception?</p>
<p>Anything more to expect? Has your community ever built a forum? What if you found that one similar section appear at local official site? What would the originnal forum users thought? That's the best negative message from "One Mozilla" that we could convinced our users regionally.</p>
<h4>Community</h4>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8QWIBAbISlm1zqaWfhTgsi5MnVhRa4NYTk6oSHl-eerM_Repj2yCHDd2Snqpbse666zkSxUjG1HrQzR8CakX6MvdgvZRs66GUx0c99pCkBf5_nmasBtXevHloc4Kk-sXPq0Tqrg/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_14.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>With the local company's some kinds of campaign begin, you may expect the other "more official" community begin to exist, while they started recruit volunteer/students. The worse thing is that you're still facing the recruit problem we mentioned before, and you may have to keep thinking "how to recruit new contributors on community's projects, from our already recruited local office's contributors." How weird is it.</p>
<p>It turns to be the original community are not the only Mozilla community anymore, although it was, it's not, maybe for some employees POV.</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEDb7KMDeTwk9N8c0hruCrT8QuyQ5rVGO0LoalVXgVc3TZ6L0vbp4SgrLC6Ai37QYbCb5xBtToVC0qmMZzj6aF7ofPCxYlW4Yar_W4EbSX4taJNkMDHQGTmpWy6NgGtt2g2aOMGQ/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_15.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>How about from the One-Mozilla POV?, the overall community is growing while your formal community weakening on behavior of above problems. It's true that our own community may not include all of the Mozillians in our region, and an alternative communities may have been running more systematically with the direct instructions from local company, and the overall perceptions of Mozilla and Firefox to audience may increasingly. But for me, the problems are more emotional than rationally.</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_lTJ0vrwEPL2mMHSh1D3ex1-M7YDjPTqqXJzhfmIxdfuXfB3UJaz_3DjvhPWAvwfb5eFefpTsG69WE9XsYDNs1MPhNhza1ZycNA7vpVnuNOqtVCdntkDQXSZgELxvZy2BydwGow/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_16.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>I couldn't questioned my believed methods to making Mozilla stronger. For the love of my community of which I begin to contributed, for the different expectation from Mozilla manifesto I believed in - "the trust of our transparent community-based processes, and the way we use to build communities that support the Manifesto's principles.
To saw a community been weakening from above problems, I found that I couldn't be as proud to mention the openness and our community approach as I was before.</p>
<h1>The evolutions and survivals of MozTW</h1>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYwW0jOx-amYd_ijhOVvdYy8TrvFlp_YfInY4WyV-EOOovHdquMaxgJvVP31OFXHW20jaVJtWVNuu4qQOLZNZgqQoUiJ7ifdMaUAGrzScpn84MJueNCNr8iNZQmxCc2WMvOFBwSA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_17.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Next is the quick review of evolution and survival of MozTW this year</p>
<h2>Offline events of 2012 </h2>
<p>In 2012, we had several offline events, such as a co-hosting Firefox-Ubuntu party in April, and Webmaker Pop-up party running joinly with local Mozilla office.</p>
<p>We kept running weekly MozTW Lab Cafe and Gathering routined meetings continuously, for community members to gather and share with each other. It seems more people are attending regularly this year.</p>
<h2> The campaign of browser pairs game</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAY-0gJWYGn5Up2Fjlb8P21hjVpaidoXo05BX7EMGtIIXLfpgNrGySBoxHjW3cHBWgSzUrMLcefkmW_Iaj3yHFArkJIo0aoMHf_pl-hynCtspZX4zYV8zetfSC7miKz-DsXc5sZA/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_18.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>And about online events, besides regularly updating of the our portal site, our main brick-and-click campaign this year is "Browser Pairs Game" as mentioned in the earlier session by the author <a href="https://mozillians.org/u/kidwm">WM</a> and <a href="https://mozillians.org/u/littlebtc">littlebtc</a>. We promoted Firefox for Android, the responsive design of our community sites our mascot Foxmosa and HTML5 all in one single joyful game campaign, not forgot to mention how happy to see the audience react, when they found the unique design of the game. I could not forget to thanks for the Firefox Mobile marketing team on supporting the campaign.</p>
<p>And We're planning to keep running the campaign, also roll-out more games to promoting the mascot and the delight of HTML5, and have more fun this year.</p>
<h2>The l10n challenges</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh83xkoL58KNWdCQNAe3jh3PRDwHOoUwi1YjOapDsqSWVQ-UTMf5tsghW0LNXQPJDcKhyphenhyphenqR8x56LSaoQaHOmD7zUc_ha_C9uqL5cxfgfdr6ZJbOR95pb9kB_20vSfQgdVnMm1F7tQ/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_19.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Due to the challenges I'd mention above, I believed we have to avoid doing things which the local office began to work on, that is, we have to decreasing the translation of blog article and building l10n product sites, divert our attention to other fields. One of the approach we tried is the video subtitle translation with Amara. After finish several short videos such as "A Different Kinds of Browser", "The Mozilla Story" and "Looking Ahead", we challenged to hosting a 2-day workshop translating "Code Rush".</p>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9aP4xhiLAOlT2-uVqTzQtWBfJ3C9QiM_pTLlz5CzLx6ZKohu2ZjWt4xsp1QGxIDTtjYCGARjGwFMqvvyG71AkTky4O4Hc6F4keJmUEw850Qe43revCp2F4fvQ1ReYDahr_Gp2zg/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_20.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>With the total attendance of about 20 contributors, and several days of over-night working on adjusting the subtitles, and with the gracefully supporting from Tara Hernandez with her video clip, the screening of <Code Rush> at local cinema with hundreds of attendees on Soft Freedom Day turned out to be the most success events of this year.</p>
<h2>From passive to active recruit, try to target the different audience</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoOGuDul8t7PeX1nSJrUEyCjYU8ZOPIZkSL0yt3BxtcKbhNev5T6K0Af3YGH-p138QTjKz-OFsk9ERYSOFSyFgtEIgoiJFXbBp1Rktsq6u0KQ5IQuB8vlHgFrF7J2QogngzpVRrg/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_21.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>In the past, most of the core contributors of MozTW are recruited from workshops and events such as school tour. But it costs to prepare the event and contents, and it's hard if we don't have someone at desired schools to help. Also the opportunity of arranging the speech at schools are more difficult these years. Consider the costs to recruit of each contributors, it seems not a good way for us to perform.</p>
<p>We do have a contribute page on our website, but it's not working well, not many people join us with that page (I can't even remember any), it's obviously we need to be more active on recruit.</p>
<p>We tried recruit new contributors at several offline events, we prepared a questionnaire with the option to choose from website, l10n, arts, campaign planning and programming, trying to target the different contribution field of portential contributors. Then we could point the appropriately project for them to begin. It's kinds of offline version of "<a href="http://whatcanidoformozilla.org/">What can I do for Mozilla</a>".</p>
<p>We had not focused on programming before, this year we began to recruit students to try the good first bug, with the help from <a href="https://mozillians.org/u/thomasy">Thomasy</a>, (whom is Mozilla rep) and Kenny (The web specification guru), and we had several success cases on that.</p>
<p>Another trial I performed last month is set a booth on an Donjinji event (which named comikon at many country, the spare-time comic-er exhibition), displaying illustrates of Foxmosa and Browser Pairs game, try to recruit voluntary illustrators, I indeed got many attendees sign-up for more information, but not getting active contributors yet.
But just like recruit programming students at OSS conference, I think to target the specific audience is one of the possible solution to decrease the difficult of recruition.</p>
<h2>The 2012 of MozTW and me</h2>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1cPGVzlacigoEiNFtARanwro6376jNry32x_AhyphenhyphenEVbVjcfyz-BbaApPnYszCY7Yq-vPXICs_80yvZZ31YYKv0ZSbpNBbUEqnXXG01bVdz6VASZhP6cJFxhyphenhyphenNMGCKPbbLb15bRJQ/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_22.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>We may faced many challenges and decisions made to try hard on evolution, at least, we survive and I'm standing here to share our experience with all of you. It may be a hard year for me to try, and to explore to be a competent community liaison, but it seems we still alived good, maybe we're doing better than I wonder?</p>
<h1>What I dream of…</h1>
<p><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbEg1d4CYjnsdVSO0qpp_DUPeV4nOyem4-jYy-f9aQVE5DDXqjNiCJH4AKj6nJQeCK5RHMXuzoOv6k7kq0K9oPSh86ozf5-Aakooant4JKx_wzGaY77GMIua4IUXU6d6Ro0JLLmg/s640/Events-of-Taiwan-community-evolution-challenges-and-survival-in-2012_Page_23.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>When I reading the Mozilla Manifesto, and when I watching "the different kinds of browser",<br>
I dreaming a community that full of people toward the same goal:<br>
working together to growing the web to a better place,<br>
to bringing the awareness of important things we value high,<br>
and to helping users browsing happily, social with their friends and to realizing their dreams online.<br>
and I know, in the mean time, we're also growing ourselves.</p>
<p>I dreaming that while I give up my sleep time, translating the latest news of Mozilla,<br>
some other contributors are working at the other side of the planets Earth,<br>
Whom I have not met, but I can see them on IRC, on mailing list,<br>
and I can hear them arguing for some most important decisions we had to make,<br>
according to our core values, and to our users' best.</p>
<p>I dreaming that I can be sure when I was tired,<br>
community will still exist for long,<br>
my friends will still happily contributing to the projects,<br>
and I know the cooperation will be our strongest support for now and ever.</p>
<p>I can dreaming that when I leave,<br>
the Internet will be a more friendly place, and the world must be better,<br>
even though we only improve it once a small bit...<br>
That I can proudly to said I was in the project, and I'm the lifetime Mozillian.</p>
<p>For all the dreams of mine, giving my sleeping time and my life,<br>
keep think and try to find the solutions, of all the problems and challenges above,<br>
try every hard to keep community exists, alive and growing,<br>
then maybe I can be here next year once more time,<br>
and to share our successful experience with all you my friends here.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>irvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15161996249607084651noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9654230.post-22397014374781928422014-12-22T12:18:00.000+08:002014-12-22T12:20:24.121+08:00Uber 與技術變革時的產業管制<p>我從 Uber 自去年(2013/12)在台灣開台到現在,已經搭了一百五十次以上,包含四五次機場接送與百多次市區通勤、另外還有幾次國外的搭乘經驗,對於服務品質、安全性與價格只能說非常滿意。</p>
<p>可惜它們應付管制的方式、與公然挑戰公權力的作法,以這麼不和諧的文化,想要挑戰運輸這種在台灣還是高度管制的行業,恐怕在目前的政府執政之下是經營不下去的。</p>
<p>很久沒有寫文章,把 <a href="https://www.facebook.com/tonylovejava/posts/10205674186279635">Facebook 的討論</a>以及<a href="https://www.facebook.com/irvinfly/posts/10201974957095087">整理</a>拿回來,整理成一篇,好好談談。</p>
<h2>Uber 的安全性控管與品質</h2>
<p>只要有用過 Uber(或 Airbnb 之類「共享經濟」的服務),都可以體會它們對於服務提供者的品質控管機制。</p>
<p>Uber 每趟搭完車後,都有讓乘客評分的機制;五顆星是滿分,四顆星以下就會提供問題反應的功能,填寫意見在一天內一定會有專人回覆,司機低於四分就會被關注,服務內不太有機會搭到三顆星的司機,因此相對於計程車而言,Uber 的司機整體水準平均許多,對於用戶而言也會感受到相對安全許多吧。</p>
<p>Uber 還有另一個非常大的優點是,駕駛途中都會紀錄 GPS 軌跡,也會即時回報到營運系統;雖然行駛距離可能沒有計程車跳表的精確,但是在路線上,帳單上都會顯示出路線,有憑有據的。搭車後,如果有發生司機路不熟、繞路等問題,都可以透過網站反應,而客服會直接根據行駛紀錄,刷退多餘的費用。</p>
<p>很多人會說現在也有 55688 等 App 叫車,但對於司機、車輛、路線的即時意見反應與控管,就算是兩大車隊的 App 上路這麼多年,還是沒有善用 App 的優點,去造就服務水準的正向循環。過去你搭計程車碰到問題,頂多打叫車電話回去罵罵客服,最後還是只能默默吞下去。</p>
<p>政府對於計程車司機的管制根本只是低標(不能有犯罪紀錄、駕駛行為用扣點去控管…等),Uber 的問題根本不是安全的問題!</p>
<h2>Uber 的問題本質</h2>
<p>Uber 現在在台灣的問題,其實單純就只是徵白牌車(無營業執照駕駛)跟逃稅的問題罷了。</p>
<p>逃稅的問題好解決,我相信國稅局沒有這麼弱到只能查小市民的避稅,沒法查 Uber 等大公司(與<a href="http://www.appledaily.com.tw/appledaily/article/headline/20141031/36179504/">大財團</a>)的逃稅;而牌照問題,如果想要正向的方法去解決,就是輔導所有白牌司機拿營業職照,同時搞清楚為什麼他們寧願招募白牌車去違法經營、為什麼這些有興趣參與的司機不去考照、以載客為閒暇副業的司機該如何納管等等,好好檢討不合時宜的營業車輛相關規定。</p>
<h2>計程車的服務品質費率管制</h2>
<p>除了營業執照外,很多人反對的其中一個理由是「Uber 的高費率」。姑且不論 Uber 是否太貴(事實上 Uber X 的價格以市內通勤其實很合理、以服務而言我覺得 Uber Black 的價格也可接受)。費率上實際的問題其實是,相對於現行的計程車而言,作一樣的受召載客的核心服務,Uber 司機收入就是比較高。</p>
<p>所以面對計程車業的抗議,作法不應該是把 Uber 之類的行業趕出去,而是放寬不合時宜的計程車費率管制,讓司機提供高品質時,也可以換得高報酬,培養出本地的高品質車隊,才能牽制外來服務,同時解決納稅跟控管問題。</p>
<p>就像衛星車隊的出現,革新原本品質一律很糟的計程車產業。過去計程車需要費率跟牌照管制,因為乘客只能在路上攔車,天知道攔到什麼爛車坐地起價、或碰到哪種司機殺人越貨,所以要加重管制。</p>
<p>在衛星與網路車隊,諸如台灣大車隊、大都會車隊出現後,有了車隊篩選機制,叫到的車大部分都能有一定水準,但司機不論是加入此類車隊,或是以傳統的方式在路上巡迴載客,單趟收益都是一樣,頂多因為車隊的調度,能有較多車趟。</p>
<h2>計程車業最不合理的現象</h2>
<p>正是費率管制,讓那些願意提升能力,學外語、幫忙殘障客等,服務這麼好的司機,也賺不到更高的收入,只能跟其他沒有服務的司機一般跳表收費,這才是整個費率管制上最不合理的情形。</p>
<p>現在的技術演進,已經可以做到,透過 App 讓乘客在叫車時,先選好價格跟品質、確認司機評價,因此早已可以鬆綁過去那種強加控管費率的作法。 如果用制度上的設計,讓司機能在提供優質服務的同時,得到更好的報酬,自然就能讓整體品質提升。</p>
<p>如果制度上無法解決怎麼擺爛都是一樣收益的狀態,最後就是計程車業現在這樣,大家都爛到一個以台灣大車隊等車隊為高標、以無車隊的車子為低標的固定均勻的品質。</p>
<h2>最好的時機</h2>
<p>如果計程車業與司機,把矛頭放在明確指出核心問題、提出解決方案的 Uber 身上,方向就大錯特錯了。現在有 Uber 出現並挑戰法令(出來當標靶),正是整個產業最好的時機點,讓產業內的司機可以藉此爭取修改相關法規,建立對乘客、司機與經營者都更好、更有利的制度。</p>
<p>如果只是想把 Uber 等新競爭對手趕出去,那最終還是會持續過去數十年這樣的,產業成本持續上升、司機收入停滯不動、乘客乘車品質不穩的狀態,也就浪費了這個最好的時機點了。</p>
<p>任何的產業,面對新科技所帶來的變革,總該要支持政府隨著技術演進、有效開放管制的立場,才能持續向上提升,否則只會很殘酷的被時代淘汰罷了。</p>irvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15161996249607084651noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9654230.post-71728965815696313012014-05-03T03:51:00.000+08:002014-05-08T12:23:15.281+08:00Mozillians in Hong Kong Open Source Conference (HKOSC)<a style="float:right;" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/irvin/13651954233" title="HKOSC - Agenda & Badge by Irvin Chen, on Flickr"><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3733/13651954233_014eb630cd_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="HKOSC - Agenda & Badge"></a>
<h2>HKOSC 2014</h2>
<p><a href="http://opensource.hk/en/2014">Hong Kong Open Source Conference</a> aka HKOSC, is an annual conference in Hong Kong for open source community. In 2014/3/29, we took this good chance to gather Mozillians (Reps) from Hong Kong, Taiwan and China together in here, helping a forum session, a booth and also have a meeting discussing various topic about building Mozilla community in Chinese region. Here is the first part of my brief report about what we'd done and what have we discussed.</p>

<h2>Mozilla Booth</h2>
<p>We host a Mozilla booth in the conference, displaying some flyers, Firefox OS devices (APC Paper, Keon & ZTE phones), plushies, give out Firefox badges and a recruiting form for interesting people to leave their contact messages.</p>
<p>There are about 250 people join the conference, and most of them had been visit our booth and try the Firefox OS devices. There are 16 people from China and Hong Kong filled the contribute forms, I hope that we'll have them success on-boarding and start contributing.</p>
<p>(Thanks <a href="http://apc.io/">APC</a> for letting us borrow the <a href="http://apc.io/products/paper/">APC Paper</a> device.)</p>
