Who is who, what are they doing, and why are they here?
Spider |
Who Am I? | My nic is Spider's Web though some people call me "Christian Fowler" in MeatSpace |
What Am I Doing? | I am one of the principle software architects of bitweaver. I joined UserPagebtodoroff to start bitweaver after successfully completing my SpidercoreBranch experiment on the Tikiwiki code base (which was soundly rejected by the Tikiwiki founder, Luis Argerich, so it was agreed a fork was necessary to bring enterprise performance to Tiki) |
Why Am I Here? | I need speed, scalability, and stability running on an enterprise database as I try to implement a 6+ million wiki page site that performs great under heavy traffic |
btodoroff |
Who Am I? | In the real world I'm know as Brian Todoroff |
What Am I Doing? | I'm one of the founders of bitweaver. At the moment I'm working on setting up this project and communtity while also adding DatabasePrefixing, and IconThemes to bitweaver |
Why Am I Here? | Computers and the Internet have always facinatied me with their ability to improve and enable communications of all sorts. I want to take the excelent foundation that Luis and MANY others produced in Tiki and provide a modular, scaleable version that is accessible to all and can continue to grow into the future. |
jomar |
Who Am I? | My nickname is UserPagejomar |
What Am I Doing? | I'm here to assist in obtaining the goal of reliable, stable releases in any way I can. I'm fairly new to Tiki's and am trying to find ways to apply my 20+ years of engineering experience to help achieve a commercially viable Tiki. |
Why Am I Here? | I became involved with bitweaver after my initial attempts to use TikiWiki in a "mission-critical" roll at my place of employment. I want to be able to rely on a stable, controlled and well documented Tiki. This is an objective which I believe must be the product of disciplined software development activities. I also interested in ramping up on the skills required to develop custom modules and themes for bitweaver |

What Am I Doing? | I had discussed spidercore with Spider when he made his proposal to the devs at TikiWIki and I agreed that a fork was most likely the best approach to the rearchitecture of TikiWiki - so here we are at bitweaver! I think Spider's desire for a Web Application Framework is the goal I agree with the most. |
Why Am I Here? | I wish for a modularised, streamlined, efficient TikiWiki to provide custom solutions to my clients - and I hope that bitweaver is the answer. |
fire |
Who Am I? | my nickname is UserPagefire This nickname was chosen cuz once I get into something - my curiosity and passion seeps into it like a wild prairie fire!! Atleast thats what I hope to do with bitweaver - I see a bright hot future with this software - especially after seeing the devotion and talent of its current development team! |
What Am I Doing? | I am working on figuring out this interesting program - I want to use it for modular and flexible client solutions. |
Why Am I Here? | I want to learn how to program custom modules for bitweaver - so my primary aim is to understand the code.... if I can - I would like to transfer all I learned into some tutorials for this site - so PLEASE send me all the help you can afford - cheers guys/gals! |

Who Am I? | xing on irc and squareing on sourceforge |
What Am I Doing? | currently i'm actively involved in the design/templating side of bitweaver. i hope to help the project wherever i can |
Why Am I Here? | learning to code and give a hand in a project i think is worth investing some time in |
docekal |
Who Am I? | Jan Lindåker |
What Am I Doing? | Mainly translation to Swedish - However right now I'm making a new package- bitUnit - to bitweaver. The bitUnit package is an integration of simple test to bitweaver |
Why Am I Here? | I'm currently using TikiWiki for my website. I have some custom made pages. I found upgrading to new version very cumbersome, since custom pages get entagled with "framework" code, so I'm in the process of switching to bitweaver |
))Helge_Karl(( |
Who Am I? | Helge Karl Nyhamn |
What Am I Doing? | Learning the bitweaver code and structure so that I can play with it effectively and customize it for my needs. I do a little bug testing and make sure things work nicely on Mac OS X. I also do the bokmål and nynorsk norwegian language localizations. |
Why Am I Here? | I was looking for something like bitweaver and found it :) . I need an application that let me control the look and feel, I like to decide which features to use and have big fait in bitweaver. The approach of the bitweaver team is very smart indeed. I also hope that I can commit something back to this project. I also apreciate the openness of open source software |
StarRider |
Who Am I? | In the real world I'm Lee Bell or s-r on IRC |
What Am I Doing? | I somehow managed to find myself (:rolleyes:) dedicated to the Liberty Plugins. Not a bad idea for a beginner trying to learn (:biggrin:). See Active Plugins and PluginProposalPage if you just have an idea. |
Why Am I Here? | Mostly - because I'm trying to learn. PHP / Smarty / and the in's and out's of bitweaver. |
(Someone needs to write a nice DirectoryPackage!)
