Mozilla 1.0 Release Parties

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the git-yo-pawty-awn dept.

Screaming Lunatic writes "With the release of Mozilla 1.0 almost here, the open source Mozilla community is planning a bunch of parties all over the world. You can choose to attend a party already planned somewhere in the world or start up a party in your own neck of the woods. The main party will be at 8pm Wednesday, June 12, 2002 at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco." Currently 37 parties listed, but many of them look awfully lonely... none near Ann Arbor yet ;)

  1. Tokyo party by cxreg · · Score: 5, Funny

    I see there's one in Tokyo, but I'm disappointed.

    It should be called "MOZILLA DESTROYS TOKYO IN MASSIVE RELEASE" or something!

    ...any reason to party is a good reason! I can see it now--RMS drunk on vodka dressed up as Godzilla, Linus up on the turntables spinnin' some wicked trance music, AND NO WOMEN TO BE SEEN FOR MILES!

    I've already got my pickup lines ready:

    Hey baby, wanna see my lizard?

    Let interface at port 69...

    Wanna exchange IP's. Better hurry - I'm dynamic!

    On second thought, I'd better resort to large quantities of alcohol...

    Indeed. Because the point of my post was clearly to try and advance feminist ideals, a personal passion for which slashdot is the ideal forum, not to rant about a personal gripe with some people's attitudes.

    I'm so impressed by your use of pointless jargon and unfounded meaningless statistics that I've decided to switch from Linux, the operating system which causes men to oppress, rape, and kill women around the globe, to the more female-friendly MS Windows, which oppresses, rapes, and kills people around the globe regardless of gender.

    Cheerio, troll.

  9. I've gotta get new glasses by r_j_prahad · · Score: 3, Funny

    When I first scanned the headlines, I thought it said "Mozilla Release Panties", and I started wondering whether they'd be new or used, and maybe I should go see if Opera's gonna be giving out sequined thongs with their new release.

    IE, of course, would be boxer shorts with an indelible racing stripe.
