Who is who, what are they doing, and why are they here?
/spider |
Who Am I? | My nic is spider 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 Brian Todoroff to start bitweaver after successfully completing my SpidercoreBranch experiment on the ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and bitweaver and 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 ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and bitweaver and 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 |
/wolff_borg |
Who Am I? | UserPagewolff_borg or Wolffy on IRC or Stephan Borg |
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 ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and bitweaver and 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 ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and bitweaver and 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! |
/xing |
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 ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and ((bitweaver and bitweaver and 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!)
