Hi everyone,

I'd like to welcome Sumana Harihareswara as a consultant helping out with some tasks that we eventually plan to hire a Volunteer Development Coordinator to handle. Specifically, she's going to focus on our participation in Google Summer of Code, as well as helping plan WMF's participation in the Berlin Developer meeting happening later this year. This announcement is a little late in coming since she already has a running start on this work, and I'm sure many of you have already seen her on IRC (sumanah).

Sumana is currently also a writer and editor for GNOME Journal, a blogger at GeekFeminism, and is a long time participant in open source communities. She has worked at Collabora, Fog Creek Software, and Salon.com, and contributed to the AltLaw, Empathy, Miro, and Zeitgeist open source projects. She's written a weekly newspaper column and has performed (and taught) stand-up comedy.

I can go on here, but you can learn much more about her on her website: http://www.harihareswara.net

We're really excited to be working with her. Welcome, Sumana!

Rob

Welcome, Sumana.
