These are the developers of Supybot, in approximate order of ____.
Jeremy Fincher (jemfinch) is a Computer Science (and possibly
philosophy) student at The Ohio State University. He spends most of
his free time with his girlfriend Meg, but also...well, there's not
much also :) He hopes to graduate with good enough grades to go to
law school or seminary at some point in the future. He initially
wrote the majority of the Supybot framework and standard plugins,
though he's been trying to slowly phase himself out of plugin-writing
and more into framework-enhancement. Rather than list the specific
things he's done, you can just assume that if someone else isn't
claiming it, it was probably done by him.
Daniel DiPaolo (Strike/ddipaolo) is a lazy Texan punk with a job as an IT
monkey who spends his free time coding, playing ultimate frisbee, and arguing
pointless things on the internet. As far as the bot goes, he's mainly a
plugin developer but he has helped here and there with various under-the-hood
things and is one of the few people (other than jemfinch) who understands the
inner workings of Supybot. His biggest plugin contribution (in terms of sheer
lines of code) has been the MoobotFactoids plugin and all the workd involved
in getting that plugin to work, but he has also helped with a lot of testing,
debugging, and brainstorming. He also wrote the Dunno, News, and Todo plugins
and is responsible for a significant amount of code in the Poll, Debian,
QuoteGrabs, Karma, and ChannelDB plugins.
James Vega (jamessan) is an Electrical Engineering/Computer Science student at
Northeastern University. He wrote the Sourceforge and Ebay plugins as well as
the first incarnation of the Babelfish commands and most of Amazon. He has
also performed a significant amount of maintenance and refactoring of plugins
in general. Some of the plugins that were affected the most are Debian,
FunDB, Gameknot, Http, Note, and Quote. All of the link snarfers, save
Bugzilla's, were also written by jamessan. His meddlings have prompted the
implementation of Toggleables, which eventually evolved to Configurables and
then to the current registry system. As well as being the current webmaster,
he also overhauled the tool which is used to generate the site's HTML
documentation for Supybot and setup the weekly creation of CVS snapshots.
Brett Kelly (inkedmn) is a hobbyist (soon to be professional :)) coder
from southern California who enjoys collecting tattoos (on his body) and
drinking coffee with his wife. He initially wrote the Note plugin as well
as several commands in the Http plugin.
Vincent Foley-Bourgon is a recently-graduated student from Quebec who
enjoys anything pointless, unprofitable, and generally useless. Recently
returning to Supybot development (after writing the original freshmeat
command for the Http plugin) he wrote the entire Hangman infrastructure
for the Words plugin.
Daniel Berlin is a soon to be lawyer with a background in computer science
and compilers. He enjoys selling crack to young homeless orphans, and works
on Supybot when he's not lawyering or hacking on gcc.
Keith Jones (kmj) dislikes talking about himself in the third person. He
has an MS in Computer Science, and has decided to see how long he can go
without using that in any kind of professional capacity. To that end he
is currently taking some math classes and applying to math Ph.D programs
so some day he can be a professor at a college near a snowy mountain where
he will ski every morning. So far, he hasn't done much for the project
except squeeze Doug Bell's GPL'd unit conversion code into a supybot plugin.
Stéphan Kochen (G-LiTe) is a lazy (soon to be) computer science student.
He's usually just freelancing and submitting patches here and there when he
bumps into a bug that bothers him, but Supybot is one of the first projects
he semi-actively tries to work on. ;) His biggest contribution has been the
refactoring of the supybot-wizard script to use the registry, though he also
likes to track down those nasty obscure bugs which haunt many of our fine
applications these days.
