Ask What You Will Of Some Slashfolks, In Person

So, ever had a question you wanted to ask the various folks behind Slash and/or Slashdot? A healthy assortment of Slashdot coders and authors (like krow, cliff, roblimo, jellicle and timothy) will be on hand for a BOF session at the Linux World Expo on Wednesday, January 31, 2001, Room 1E11, 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. So, if you happen to be around, feel free to join us and have your questions answered. And of course, the Slash and Slashdot folks will also be at random times in the OSDN booth on the show floor, so please stop by. Hope to see you there!Update: 01/15 12:55 PM by H : Rob and I won't be able to make itto the BOF -- outstanding plans -- but you can catch us on February 15th at the O'Reilly P2P conference in San Fransico. We speak at something like 11:30 AM or so, on a panel - but we'll be at LWCE as well.

/. Interview?

[tbo]

That's great for people who can make it, but why not do a Slashdot-style interview with CmdrTaco, Hemos, CowboyNeal, and the rest of the gang?

We all have questions and suggestions for the Slashdot crew, and, while we can always email you guys, an open-forum discussion would be a good thing.

Rob, Can you guys

[Anonymous Coward]

set up a curtained area, so that some of us can come there an anonymously hurl insults at you from the audience?

Is there a no-penis-bird policy?

Can I be the goatse man? Is there a signup sheet, or is it first-come, first-goatse?

Other editors

My question: why can't new people apply to be editors for Slashdot? Clearly, some people would be great to review article submissions, and those who frequent the site would recognize duplicate stories (*cough* Hemos *cough*).

I asked CmdrTaco to be part of the Slashdot crew through email and he didn't respond.

As it is, there seems to be a lot of editors lying around since the stone age of Slashdot evolution, back when they actually *did* review articles and contribute to stories.

Why can't new people apply.
