This page lists volunteers currently working on Dreamwidth projects. If you are interested in seeing the main players of the Dreamwidth project, you might also want to visit the staff page. If you are not listed here, feel free to add yourself!

Adding people

Current information you might want to list when adding others or yourself to this list:

  • Coordinates/in charge of: What things does this person manage and have a responsibility for?
  • Currently working on: What is this person working on now?
  • Future projects: What is this person planning to do on DW for the future?
  • Skills: What skills does this person have that DW can use?
  • Interests: What type of things is this person interested in doing on DW
  • Best methods of contact: IRC? Email? Other methods?

The categories people are sorted into are simple right now, but might become more complex later. Currently, just add things in alphabetical order.

Copy paste template

The current title part can also not link to a DW, just take away the <dwuser> tags surrounding it.
