  • Marcia Knous: My Name Is Marcia Knous
    Olivia Ryan: Can you just state your name? Marcia Knous: My name is Marcia Knous. OR: Just give us your general background. How did you come to work at Mozilla and what do you do for Mozilla now? MK: Basically, I started with Mozilla back in the Netscape days. I started working with Mozilla.org shortly after AOL acquired Netscape which I believe was in like the ’99- 2000 timeframe. I started working at Netscape and then in one capacity in HR shortly after I moved working with Mitchell as part of my shared responsibility, I worked for Mozilla.org and sustaining engineering to sustain the communicator legacy code so I supported them administratively. That’s basically what I did for Mozilla. I did a lot of I guess what you kind of call of blue activities where we have a process whereby people get access to our CVS repository so I was the gatekeeper for all the CVS forms and handle all the bugs that were related to CVS requests, that kind of thing. Right now at Mozilla, I do quality assurance and I run both our domestic online store as well as our international store where we sell all of our Mozilla gear. Tom Scheinfeldt: Are you working generally alone in small groups? In large groups? How do you relate to other people working on the project? MK: Well, it’s a rather interesting project. My capacity as a QA person, we basically relate with the community quite a bit because we have a very small internal QA organization.

  • Parmenter Interview 03-29-2006 Page 1 Ryan: Okay, So Why Don't You
    Parmenter Interview 03-29-2006 Page 1 Ryan: Okay, so why don't you state your name and just generally tell us what you do here at Mozilla. Parmenter: My name is Stuart Parmenter. I work on our graphics, back end of the structure pieces here at Mozilla. Ryan: And how did you come to work at Mozilla? Parmenter: I guess it starts a long time ago. I guess back in '98, started working on the Mozilla project back in high school in Georgia and in '99 I got hired by Netscape. And did that for about four years and then went off to another company called Open Source Applications Foundation. Which is Mitch Kapor's sort of personal information manager client thing. Did that for a year. Saw that wasn't the right thing for me. Then I went with a group of guys who are now here at Mozilla to Oracle. We were doing some Mozilla calendaring work. So that sort of brought me back in, after a year away and we decided that wasn't the right place either. So then we sort of came back and during that period, I guess we had been working out of the Mozilla offices and, you know, because we were really working that project, it wasn't really—we were paid by Oracle, but it wasn't really doing much related to the company itself. Aside from trying to help them get their stuff out. And then started at Mozilla here in July of last year, I guess. Ryan: And when did you begin working with computers? Parmenter: Let's see.

  • Okay. So If You Could Just State Your Name, and I Should Say First, Today Is May 11, 2006
    FrankP1128K-CD and FrankP11128K-CD Page 1 Olivia Ryan: Okay. So if you could just state your name, and I should say first, today is May 11, 2006. Frank Hecker: Okay. And my name is Frank Hecker, H-e-c-k-e-r. Olivia Ryan: Okay, great. And how did you come to work at Mozilla? Frank Hecker: Well, I’ve been a volunteer with the Mozilla project for a number of years, and so when I—I’ll start with how I became a volunteer for the Mozilla project. Back in February 1995, I jointed Netscape to work for the government sales group at Netscape, which was in Bethesda, Maryland. I had previously been interested in the Internet, which is one of the reasons why I actually was interested in working at Netscape, and I got the job at Netscape through a person I had previously worked with in another company, who became the, basically, the federal sales director for Netscape, a guy named Peter Thorp, T-h-o-r-p. And I worked at Netscape for about, I guess, four, four and a half, five years, something like that. I’ll remember in a minute when I left. But basically the job that we had at Netscape was essentially selling Netscape products, including the browser, to the federal government and the state, later just state and local governments. And as part of that, we got involved in some of the areas of product design, product marketing, working with the engineering groups and things like that. As a result of that, I became involved in what originally became the Mozilla project as an internal advocate within the company of opening up the source codes to Netscape products, including the browser.

Bradener, RFC 2119: Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Require- ment Levels (March 1997) Emulator as koan • Easy 6502 Assembly Language Themes • Power and who holds it; history and who tells it • Marginalized voices and their portrayal in (or erasure from) history 1 Prompts • “Tell me one thing that will be true about computers ten years from now?” Episode Summaries Description This first class is mostly about getting situated into a learning environment with a chosen group, getting ready to think about the history of technology, and about thinking about who has traditionally been left out of mainstream narratives about technology. This syllabus should inspire individuals to not just think about the past, but how it influences the present and what it means for the future. “Computers aren’t the thing; they’re the thing that gets us to the thing.” This series covers the history of computers from the late 1970s to the early 1990s. But more than just technical innovation, it manages to center the people in it, including power dynamics. There’s a lot that we can cover about gender, class, and race and how they interact with each other. Those ideas are important. Characters are important to talk about when they are generalizing these larger ideas. That being said, this syllabus does not intend to take a film theory approach to analyzing the intentions behind characters at a personal level, but takes the approach of how these behaviors are symptomatic of larger structural, societal issues.

  • Oral History of Kenneth Kocienda and Richard Williamson
    Oral History of Kenneth Kocienda and Richard Williamson Interviewed by: Hansen Hsu Marc Weber Recorded October 12, 2017 Mountain View, CA CHM Reference number: X8367.2018 © 2017 Computer History Museum Oral History of Kenneth Kocienda and Richard Williamson Hsu: The day is October 12th, 2017. I am Hansen Hsu. I am joined here by Marc Weber, a colleague. And we are here with Richard Williamson and Ken Kocienda. Okay. And so, we generally start these with some biographical background. Because there’s two of you, we’ll go over that a little more quickly than usual, but I’ll start with asking where did each of you grow up. Williamson: Well, I grew up, until I was eleven, in England, in Stafford. And after that, my family moved to Phoenix, Arizona. My dad worked for Honeywell. At the time, they were making big mainframe computers. And they had a factory in Phoenix. So, he moved out to work there. Then I went to college on the East Coast, Swarthmore College. And in college, I actually met Steve Jobs. And after my sophomore year, I started working at NeXT, which was his company after he left Apple. And then I worked there on and off. And I actually went back to school and finished school. And I came back to NeXT. And after NeXT, I did a couple of ventures on my own. Then I joined Apple in 2001 and worked there for several years. And after Apple, I worked at Facebook for a few years. So, that’s my five-minute-- one-minute synopsis.
