Friend of a friend

Just saw the "friend of a friend" icon for the first time. These relationships are getting complicated. :)


But is it news?

Is the "friend of a friend" new? Seems to be newer than whatever version of slash Slashdot is running.

And what in the world is eof.gif? That's when your friend closes his end of the pipe and isn't going to send any more data? :)

I don't know what it means, but it goes right with a question I was wondering about. Do we also have Foe of a Friend, Friend of a Foe, Foe of a Foe? Then Friend of a Fan, Fan of a Foe, etc...? I can see the day when we start seeing a dozen of those icons lining up ;-)

As for the version of Slash, we're supposedly guinea pigs here. Pudge tries new versions out on us before releasing them to the world iirc.

And does a foe of a foe automatically become a friend?
