Hey Everyone,
As you probably know, things are looking great for Waze these days. We’re finally experiencing massive growth and along with that we’re also facing many issues and challenges - many of which you are experiencing first hand. Since you all are at the core of everything that’s going on within Waze, we thought it’s time to get together to discuss and update you about everything that’s happening on all fronts…from great things to look forward to all the way to existing problems and challenges.
So…we’re organizing the first ‘Waze Meet-up’ for our top contributors. It’ll be sort of a QA/Open discussion session with Ehud Shabtai, founder and CTO, along with Yael Elish, who heads Product & Marketing. More relevant key team members from Waze are likely to arrive, too, with the goal of us spending around 3-4 hours together with you.
In order to really be able to listen and discuss we would like to keep the format an initimate one - up to 25 people.
The first meeting will take place in Paris on November the 19th., starting around 1-2 pm and going into the early evening (no over night).
Since we know you’re not all based locally (Paris), and because it’s important for us that you come, we’ll cover the flight/train ticket expenses for those of you who are not local, for an amount of up to 300 Euro. Information about coordinating your travel will be sent later.

[[Edit - 11/11/11 - link removed as the list is now closed]]
We don’t know how many of you will register, but if there’ll be more then 25 people, we’ll give preference to the top 25 conributors (based on number of points, map edits, drives, forum posts, length of time the users’s been with Waze, and proximity to Paris). But rest assured, if there’ll be high interest in an event like this, we’ll gladly organize more of these meetings so everyone gets a chance to participate…
Please note that this invitation extends to our EU wazers only, we’ll have another one in the US, sometime very soon…
