Which Organizations Have Standardized on Mozilla?

andy brunetto asks: " We are investigating email clients to deploy as our "standard" at the college where I work. I'm trying to find out who is using Mozilla for their email. When I say "who" I mean organizationally, as I realize 99% of us geeks already use it. What organizations out there are rolling out Mozilla as their standard web and/or email client, and why? Yes, we are considering using Thunderbird, once it is final. Thanks!" Hopefully this will make companies realize that the Internet isn't comprised of just IE users.

The only decent browser is Lynx.

Nah, everybody knows that the only decent browser is w3m!

ActiveState

[Simon (S2)]

ActiveState uses mozilla in Komodo, a really good programming ide for Perl, PHP, Python, Tcl, and XSLT, and maybe for other products.
i have only seen Komodo, and it's a grat ide and makes good use of mozilla (it's embedded in their application).

Sorry, but if you're using IE you're not really a geek

Holy shit; awesome. -wca2004 P.S. Do you have stairs in your house?

Standardize on one browser? hahaha

[mindKMST]

I work for a school district that has about 200 Mac clients and 100 windows. We install a minimum of three browsers on all machines. Usually we include: Mozilla, IE, Netscape 4.8, and Safari on OSX. I personally recommend Mozilla to all the teachers. Unfortunately, it is impossible to rely on one browser for today's web. However, I prefer Apple's Safari on OSX and usually recommend that to the teachers. Safari does provide better integration with disk images and installers. It makes the transition to OSX a little less confusing. Allthough I personally use Mozilla on my powerbook, there are some interface quirks that can prove confusing for the near techno-illiterate teachers.

Your sig / -1 Offtopic

[thasmudyan]

if you want "No More Hiroshimas" then I say "You First. No More Pearl Harbors."

You sig is totally freaking me out! Pearl Harbor was solely a *military* target, Hiroshima was a goddamn city full of civilian people! How dare you even compare these! In every war people who have nothing to do with the war lose their lives, but Hiroshima is one of the saddest examples since the bombing's main objective was just to kill as many Japanese people as possible so Japan might be scared of further dealing with the US. Do you know what this tactic is called when civillian organizations do that? Yes, it's called terrorism. But I'm sure it can't be terrorism or mass murder if it's americans who did it, right? We are all real heroes here, right?

I don't care even if your grandmother died at Pearl because if so she was military and they knew what they signed up for. Tell those touchy little hero stories to the dead of Hiroshima, I'm sure they would be impressed. Tell your military crap to the children who died painfully of radiation sickness, clinging to the charred bodies of their parents!

(Three years at slashdot, never flamed anybody before, but I can't just ignore shit like this and I wish other people would feel the same way. Alas, I'm alone, this is the Post-9/11 world - I'm I dinosaur...)

Then I guess you conviently forgot japanese attemtps to target innocent americans such as the baloons they sent over with explosives

and I suppose you can tell our military back then to suck it in and deal with more losses as the Japanese were not at all willing to submit to peace negotiations - with no end in sight and continued attacks - what other option was there?

You are so ignorant of history.

Re:Your sig / -1 Offtopic

Military losses != civil losses

I just thought that killing as many civilians as possible is even more ammoral than anything else that happens at war. You can't just say 'yeah but we had no choice, we needed them to shut up' (well then again, *you* obviously can), but I'm sure that's exactly what common terrorists think, too. So you gotta ask what's the difference between a nuke-happy general and a terrorist? Is it just the size of their home countries that sets them appart?

Nobody is denying that Japan and America (and about every other damn country that ever waged war) did horrible things to other people. It's just the first time that the ethics of a common thug were applied to warfare on such a grand scale! Even G.W. Bush wouldn't dream of doing something so gross as to nuke civilians, and that says a lot.

You are so ignorant of history.
I'm not, just because I have a different oppinion. I realize that in history the winner's always right, though. Just wish that people would value other people's lives a bit more highly, but I guess that's just the wrong time for such things.

Re: Until Mozilla Crash Bugs are closed...

It's probably one of his hardware drivers. If people would start buying decent systems with ECC memory and stuff, then they would see a lot less crashes.

But instead people buy el-cheapo PCs and then bitch at Microsoft when it crashes (when in fact it's probably the driver which is bad).
