MozCorp Announces Firefox 1.5 Extension Competition

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the embrace-and-extend dept.

vain gloria writes "The Mozilla Corporation has launched a competition to Extend Firefox by developing an innovative new extension for the soon-to-be-released latest version of their popular browser. The competition runs until January 6th and the three big prizes are Foxified Alienware PCs. Keen developers may want to grab a copy of the 1.5 Release Candidate and get a head start. Better check your passports first though, as those outside the US, EU and Canada (or in Québec) are ineligible to enter."

  1. Once again: OSS is not US specific! by MikeTheBike · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Can someone tell these boneheads that we outside of the US aren't to pleased to allways see that the event horizon of the US citizen ends at the border of the US of A. Ever heard of things like KDE and Linux??? Not invented in the US!!! Suprise, suprise! Go back to the drawingboard and come up with a contest worthy of the Mozilla project!

    Hope some day I'll be able to check my quebecois passport. Until then I only have a passport of a foreign country. Whoohoo. Quebec is on the map. Even on slashdot. Thank's. Thank you all.

    thinks that Québec isn't in Canada! I knew it! In your face Canada.
