Mozilla Day at ITS

Friday, April 24th 2009 was first Mozilla Day in Indonesia. More than 100 students and enthusiasts attended the event held in Information System Park at ITS Surabaya. The ITS rector Priyo Suprobo, Head of Faculty of Information Technology Riyanarto Sarno, and Head of Information System Dept. Achmad Holil Noor Ali opened the whole event.

The first presentation was from Kiki Ahmadi, one of developer of PureZilla add-on. The presentation is available here. The idea is to simplify search and compare of products, by using API from Yahoo, Amazon, etc.
The second presentation was from Rohmatulloh A.K.A Stevie, one of developer of HΛniF add-on. The add-on enables hadits search easily.

Finally, my presentation is about Mozilla Add-ons development, what the tool available, what knowledge are required, how to submit them on AMO, etc. There were many question from users. Some are general, some are very specific like how to incorporate third party libraries in C or C++, where the documentation lives, what about reviewing system in AMO.

While most of students came from IS department, there was also at least one student came from the Island of Madura, which is nearby island of Surabaya.

The event was ended at about 5PM but I was still answering some question and talked with other Linux Activists from KLAS and also belutz from id-ubuntu.

Many thanks for Nur’ Aini Rakhmawati and Gen Kanai and you all that make this happened.

Hopefully, this event will be followed by another Mozilla event in Indonesia.

Mozilla+Indonesia=rocks!
