On the blink

Today Flock Inc, has released the new version of Flock, its social browser that allow to communicate with friends and a lot of web 2.0 services.

I have test Flock, and it rocks, but there is some problems I noticed:

• It’s based on Gecko 1.8, so new features of Firefox 3 (awesome bar, new themes, more standards of Gecko) are not available.
• Little browser window, I mean, a lot of bars, lateral-bar and more things that reduces the window of the webpage browser.

I will wait for Flock 2.0, based on 1.9 Gecko. That will rock.

Blink tag was a joke. WTF!

I love blink tag!

So, I had to rename my blog? I don’t think so…

Sorry, in Spanish: link

10 years ago Mozilla was alive. A 31th of March of 1998 the Mozilla foundation was officially published and presented to the crowd.

Mozilla has grown a lot since this date. More and more people know it and use one or more of its products.

I can only say… CONGRATULATIONS MOZILLA!!

You are only a child (you need 18 years to become an adult ) but it will be a mature boy.

A good post about that, is in the Mitchell’s Blog.

Grrr…

[Mm, Opera renders the SVG image bellow, but... Ff3pre doesn't, why?]

It seems that the million-dollar question has a answer: “yes”.

Watch the past and the present.

1.7 code -> Firefox 1 and Thunderbird 1.

1.8.0 code -> Firefox 1.5 and Thunderbird 1.5. (sunbird o.5?)

1.8.1 code -> Firefox 2 and Thunderbird 2. (and sunbird 0.7-0.8?)

So… 1.9 -> Firefox 3. Only.

There is an interesting disscussion in m.d.platform about that. KaiRo opened the pandora’s box

I support Simon Paquet, another topic in m.d.l10n, about /l10n frozen for Ffb5.

Mozilla, don’t do that, please.

Yesterday I read a post in KaiRo’s blog about how does it feel about working in Mozilla. Today I have received an email from Ricardo (Seamonkey rules, isn’t it?) talking about these post and some more reflections about that.

Regarding the post, I could say I’m not as involucred as KaiRo in Mozilla project, I’m only a localizer and mini-writer of documetation in Spanish, when I could, I help in Mozilla Hispano and doing some QA in Mozilla-based software.

So, I only do Mozilla things when I want. I have no one with a gun behind my head forcing me to do some work I don’t want. I mean, KaiRo left his job because he could with the donations to him from Seamonkey entusiausts. I cannot (obviously :P).

I think that you aren’t be able to work when you are feeling bad or depressed, or burned, like KaiRo said.

So, take a time, and get back with enormous strength!

Well, this post is the continuation of the latest about FOSDEM2008, where few spanish people went to listen to some Mozilla folks.

The 2nd day began as soon as the sun rises, at 9 o’clock conferences begin…

Last weekend, in Brussels, Mozilla was in the FOSDEM2008, an annual conference of open source software. I was there with some members of the NAVE team, the Spanish translation of Mozilla and its products (Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird…), and the add-ons.

There were a lot of interesting people from the Mozilla community and all their conferences were spectacular.
