Some of the next-generation projects discussed are already functional, and a demo of Peek-A-Booty is going to be presented. I wonder if anyone will be arrested?"

  2. Sounds a bit like HAL by imrdkl · · Score: 2, Informative
    The HAL conference in the Netherlands recently seemed to have a similar agenda, although the focus seemed broader there. I am surprized and pleased to see such a forum in the US, even if I cant go.

    The BOFs and after-hour discussions are perhaps deeper and more insightful in Holland, or at least, it seems that way...

    CRAP: Campaign Relegiously Against Postslapping

    Goal: Public admission by slashdot editors to NOT unnecessarily Thread/Postslap comments which are critical of them or the slashdot system.

    Required: An elite force of High-Karma slashdotters with some trolling tendencies. Must be willing to burn large quantities of Karma to achieve a high profile. Only +2 posters need apply.

    Further Info: You may lose Karma, fast. But this is for the Greater Good, dude. You may find yourself unable to post due to being modded down too many times in 24hrs. I would suggest using multiple accounts and shifting your IP address.
