Open Source DRM is an obvious ploy by the Illuminati to spread "acceptible" DRM to the resistant open source community. Once they have us eating out of their palms their world domination plan will advance another great step forward.
Sure, they'll "give" you 1000 hours of music but will write it off as an operating expense in the books. It's attempt at propping up the artificially high values they put on music.
1.Switch Mozilla's default browser component from the XPFE-based Navigator to the standalone Phoenix browser.
2.Develop further the standalone mail companion application to Phoenix already begun as Minotaur, but based on the new toolkit used by Phoenix (this variant has been codenamed Thunderbird).
3.Deliver a Mozilla 1.4 milestone that can replace the 1.0 branch as the stable development path, then move on to make riskier changes during 1.5 and 1.6. The major changes after 1.4 involve switching to Phoenix and Thunderbird, and working aggressively on the next two items.
4.Fix crucial Gecko layout architecture bugs, paving the way for a more maintainable, performant, and extensible future.
5.Continue the move away from an ownership model involving a large cloud of hackers with unlimited CVS access, to a model, more common in the open source world, of vigorously defended modules with strong leadership and clear delegation, a la NSPR, JavaScript, Gecko in recent major milestones, and Phoenix.

When the Universities see a drop in tuition they should sue the RIAA. Don't all students go for the big pipes and free tunes?
Psychological effects of having to wear an orange badge whilst other people have blue badges...? For god's sake, get a bit of backbone.

none working perfectly
I'd like to see any software, free or otherwise, that does. If software worked perfectly, programmers would be unemployed.

Ok, I admit to adding 6 and 7.
That's great news, now they can be dying as a team rather than divisive little groups.
