Open Source Comes to Campus/SFSU

Thanks!

Thanks for coming to the talk! Video and slides will be online soon.

• OS X
• Linux

Goal #2: Read some of Asheesh's favorite bugs

• "Link not working" in Mozilla Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=780100
• "AN IRRELEVANT LICENSE IS PRESENTED TO YOU FREE OF CHARGE ON STARTUP": https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/269656

Goal #3: Take a look at some 'How to contribute' pages
