Hi all,
MediaWiki is a great project and a growing niche. As it becomes even more popular, there will be increasing demand for experts in the field.
I am compiling a contact list of MediaWiki experts who may be interested in opportunities under the right circumstances. I am not a recruiter - I'm a regular developer who sometimes gets asked for referrals when I'm not personally available.
If you'd like to be on my shortlist of go-to experts, please contact me off-list at: wilson.jim.r@gmail.com
Please be prepared to show your expertise by /any/ of the following: * Committer status or patches accepted * Bugs reported which were either resolved or are still open (that is, /real/ bugs) * Commit access to another open source project based on MediaWiki * Extensions you've authored or significantly modified * Links to any public wikis you administer * Articles / blog entries written about MediaWiki concepts or development * Significant contributions to documentation (mediawiki.org or meta.wikimedia.org) * Speaking engagements or user groups at which you've presented * Other? (I'm sure I didn't think of everything)
I'll be happy to answer any questions, and I look forward to hearing from you!
