  • I’m a little concerned that the non-developer audience you’re trying to reach might misconstrue “Hack everything”. But I guess even if they take it to mean “break into everything”, that kind of applies. I think the graphic on the mozilla.org/drumbeat page (with the builder guys) gets the idea across better than the version with just the drum logo.

    • Loving the above, but agree with Janet on “Hack.” Here in Toronto, when we started the Hacks/Hackers meet-ups (where hacks == journalists, and hackers == programmers), there were several people who signed up with a note something along the lines of “I want to learn how to break into computers.” Clearly the terms Hack and Hacking are not well understood by many outside the open source and free software communities.

      Phillip.
