sounds like a nice event, tell us if you need any help or volunteers.

I'll try to be there (but I need one of these security clearances).

Security?

Salam,

The security ID bit sounds too big brotherish to me. If this is supposed to be a Mozilla browserfest what's the point of making security ID cards for everyone coming to the event?

Maybe by security ID they mean registration? Registration I understand but call it registration then.

edit: and what's this bit about submitting your national ID number to them? Next thing you know they'll start asking for RFID tags to be plastered to your brain.

Youssuf

regarding security ID...

We need your ID number so that we could make a permit for you to enter the American University in Cairo which is where the event is held.

what is "Security ID" ?!

DJ KING - 20/11/2004 - 5:06am

what is "Security ID" ? do you mean "Personal ID" ? then what if i don have a "Security ID"? can i use my "Passport number" ?"Student ID" ?

Ask 8 slackers how to do something, get 10 answers. ;)

ID not secuity ID

ya gama3a they need to know 'رقم البطقة' to inform the people at the doors or else you don't go in.

bas, its annoying and big brotherish and its being done by almost all of our universities khalas so what would you excpect from the AUC.

cheers,

Alaa
