Call for contributors for Miro 3.5

For many contributions, there's "paperwork" that sticks around allowing me to programmatically figure out who has helped out. For example, the author field in git checkins, reporters/commenters in bugzilla, ...

For other things (translations, testing, ...), I don't have a good way to programmatically figure out who's helped out, who's participated, who's worked with me and other contributors to Miro's development to make Miro as awesome as we can make it.

Going forward, I'll continue to work on making sure that we're doing a good job of crediting everyone who worked on a release because other projects do it and we should be doing it to.

For this release, I want to make sure we credit everyone. If you've contributed to Miro development, let me know because I want to include you in the CREDITS file and other places. Either leave a comment or send me an email.

If you read this entry (and the previous one, please dent it, tweet it, and mention it wherever you can so that we can credit as close to everyone we can as possible. Thank you!

Comments:

Post a new comment:

Three things:

New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.
