VA Lays Off Mesa Developer

Presumably just two of many major contributors to open source, but honestly I don't really know who got the axe. So far Slashdot has been unaffected by the layoffs (VA owns Slashdot too in case you live in a box).

    Sell Slashdot to NYT online. That would solve all the login problems too.
