History of WhoWhatWhy
!!Who is who, what are they doing, and why are they here?
|| __Spider__
Who Am I?|My nic is ((UserPagespider|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 ((UserPagebtodoroff|Brian Todoroff)) to start bitweaver after successfully completing my SpidercoreBranch experiment on the Tikiwiki code base (which was [http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3752617&forum_id=12569|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 ((DatabaseComparison|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|jomar))
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||
|| ))__wolff_borg__((
Who Am I?| ((UserPagewolff_borg|wolff_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 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|fire)) 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
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||
