Mozilla Dev Team On Firefox's Success 184

Posted by kdawson from the include-and-reveal dept.
Titus Germanicus writes "If you're thinking about open sourcing a project in the near future, Mozilla might be the perfect blueprint to follow. At last week's Mesh 2008 conference in Canada, Mike Shaver, chief technology evangelist and founding member at Mozilla, and John Resig, a JavaScript evangelist at Mozilla — two of the key figures behind the success of Mozilla's Firefox Web browser — listed inclusivity and transparency as two of the top cornerstones of any community-built project. Shaver said in this interview that because the Web is intended for everybody, the level same openness should be shared with Firefox's open source contributors."

OMGZombies writes: "Speaking on a conference held yesterday in New York, the Atari founder Nolan Bushnell said that a new stealth encryption chip called TPM will "absolutely stop piracy of gameplay" The chip is apparently being embedded on most of the new computer motherboards and is said to be "uncrackable by people on the internet and by giving away passwords" though it won't stop movie or music piracy, since "if you can watch it and you can hear it, you can copy it." I don't know much about this chip but what I know is that hackers are a resourceful lot and they love a challenge."
