How many continents have you covered this month?

Not counting home, Me and Goksin just realized we have been on 4 continents this month... and we've been there together too... does this call for a new club?

You like OSS, have a look at community at work ...

I have been looking at bug tracking for a Mozilla (Firefox) bug related to tooltips.

I was surprized by quite a few things. Here are some :

 

  • 5 years to fix a bug ?
    • Opened: 2000-07-13 06:28 PST
    • Status : ASSIGNED        Priority : P3
    • Last modified: 2005-02-11 15:01 PST
  • Threads that take up days to end up marked as duplicates
  • an incredible offer :
I'm interested in attempting to fix this bug...  I'm a competent C/C++
programmer with no experience with the Mozilla code base, so I'd appreciate it
if someone could point me to the part of the code (file and lines) where
tooltips are handled, and I'll take a look.
  • Even comments like this :
The problem, as I understand it, is that the bug blocking this one depends on a
person who is no longer working on Mozilla doing some work, or another person
doing a huge amount of work.  If anyone would like to fix it, many people would
appreciate it.
You still like to use OSS in your critical systems? good luck...

Cairo was a blast ...

   This year, I had a great time (again) in Cairo. I had to do 7 presentations at the conference!!! but I still could manage to spend some time with my friends. 4 out of 5 of the anti-suckiness club were there : Kimberly Tripp, Steven Forte, Goksin Bakir and I. We had some very good moments. Patrick Hynds was accompagnied by his wife Sabina and his partner Bruce Bacca. We had arranged to stay for two extra-days, and we did some tourism together. It was very fun and Sabina and Bruce are very nice to hang out with.

   Lara Martini was there too, and I had some good time talking to her. She made me remember writing (which I have not done for quite a while) as she wrote poetry and short stories as well.

   All in all, I got to meet quite a few new people, to do some productive speaking, and to hang out with friend. It was a blast.
