CODE RUSH

As part of an innovative and fresh approach, i.e. a non-traditional meeting event: we will present a video documentary entitled: “CODE RUSH" This is the third movie night of the week (we happen to be on Winter break!)

Documentary:  CODE RUSH

Summary: Code Rush is a 2000 documentary following the lives of a group of Netscape engineers in Silicon Valley. It covers Netscape's last year as an independent company, from their announcement of the Mozilla open source project until their acquisition by AOL. It particularly focuses on the last-minute rush to make the Mozilla source code ready for release by the deadline of March 31, 1998, and the impact on the engineers' lives and families as they attempt to save the company from ruin.

AFTER the movie - we can have a brief discussion session. NOTE: You must supply your own soda pop and popcorn! :-)

Trivia may also follow, so bring your Jeopardy hats too
