IndyHall Lecutures #2: A peek inside Mozilla Posted: 11 Sep 2008 09:09 AM CDT One of our newest full time members, Josh Aas, is an engineer for Mozilla. As a good chunk of our community is comprised of web geeks, it was really exciting to be able to get some new insight into the production and business operations side of the foundation that’s brought us Firefox (Josh is involved in the Gecko rendering engine and the rewrite of Firefox 3 for the Mac). On Wednesday, September 17th at 6:30pm, Josh will be giving a lecture at IndyHall about Mozilla’s software engineering processes, including writing and integrating code, project management, leadership structure, and community involvement. He’ll also give an overview of their goals and their plans for the future. For those of you interested in how Open Source and a corporation/foundation operate, this lecture should not be missed! Please RSVP on Upcoming!

PHLedit - Inagural Video Hack @ IndyHall Posted: 11 Sep 2008 08:55 AM CDT Videographers, videobloggers, and video podcasters: come on down to IndyHall and work on all those videos you’ve been meaning to work on for the last 6 months! Join us for PHLedit, which is being organized by Lauren Galanter (who’s responsible for our namesake, Independents Hall). It will be held at Indy Hall starting at 5pm on Saturday, October 4, 2008. PHLedit is a free, unstructured video-centric coworking event. Video editors, video bloggers, video podcasters, or anyone who wants to come and edit in a supportive and casual environment are invited to do so. Wifi and power connections, seats, and desks are provided, but you’ll have to bring your own equipment and software. This event was inspired by similar events across the country–PHXedit in Phoenix, AZ and SF Video Edit and SuperHappyVlogHouse in San Francisco, CA. It is loosely affiliated with Node101, an open-source movement to teach and spread videoblogging. Some food and drink will be provided, but we’d like to do a potluck of sorts as well. Please bring some snacks (nom nom nom) to share if you are able to. Please RSVP: Facebook or Upcoming Going to reblog about the event? Official event tag: “PHLedit” (for vlogs, blogs, flickr, etc.)
