In the course of the last week, I've added two new developers (from France) to our Sourceforge site. It looks like I'll be getting to add a couple more (from Argentina) in the near future. I'm really excited to see more groups joining up with Koha, and I can't wait to see the kinds of things that start happening. Let me take this opportunity to talk about four things: 1) If you're interested in working on Koha, please let Chris, Paul, or I know. We can always use people who want to work on coding, testing, writing documentation, or what have you. Even if your Perl skills aren't the greatest, there are plenty of ways you can contribute. 2) If you are registered as a developer, but you haven't been active in the last year or so, please get in touch with me. I promise I won't try to talk you into working on the project, I just want to see if you're still there and still interested. 3) We're hitting the home stretch towards 2.0.0, this means we need to be extra careful about what we do with our sourcecode. If you're a developer and you've got an idea for a cool new feature, please DON'T add it to koha yet. If you've just got to work on it, please do so outside the normal cvs tree -- once 2.0.0 is out, we'll be relaxing this stance. 4) If you want to work on Koha, but don't know where to start, please take a look at bugs.koha.org ... there are a lot of little things that need to be fixed. Please feel free to grab a bug and squash it. thanks, -pate

I'm not bothered about cvs access, as my changes to the installer definitely need to go through the bug tracker for others to review, IMO, but can Turo Technology LLP, http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ be added to the listing of companies offering support for koha, please? We are based in the UK, which doesn't seem to have anyone listed yet. I'm just rewriting our web site to include more koha details. -- MJR http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ IM: slef@jabber.at This is my home web site. This for Jabber Messaging. How's my writing? Let me know via any of my contact details.

Maybe we should clean the dev list and remove ppl inactive since 1year, after sending them a mail saying "if you don't want to be removed from dev list, answer this mail". Anyway, we should keep trace of those contributors in "credit" page. -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

Yes, this is the direction I'm heading ... I was trying to start with a gentle warning -- and to encourage people to think about where they are with Koha, and what their plans are.

Absolutely. I think that giving credit to everyone who's helped is essential. thanks, -pate
