WANTED: Small not-for-profit entity seeks volunteer help in the form of
obsessive coders (C, Ruby, Python) willing to devote long hours to a
community project. Candidates must be accustomed to writing clear,
straightforward code and must be amenable to license assignment a la
FSF.
The project requires coders who are willing to write informal
requirements documents based on user input and specification, as well as
being extremely willing to "scratch someone else's itch." The project
includes a web-based utility environment and a non-web-based interactive
chat environment.
The web component will be modular and will provide user authentication,
incident reporting and volunteer time scheduling, as well as allow
configuration of external services. PostgreSQL and MySQL experience
needed. LDAP, XML-RPC and SOAP expertise highly desirable. Code reuse is
encouraged where it does not interfere with ease of use and design
goals. Professional-quality artwork and layout needed; site must be web
standards compliant.
The non-web component consists of a modular interactive chat framework
designed to replace a conventional IRC daemon, with abstracted session
management and modules to implement IRC, jabber and other eventually
other client protocols. User and discussion group configuration
primarily via web component. Performance is extremely important.
If you're interested in helping out, please email me at levin at
freenode dot net or stop by irc.freenode.net and message lilo. Thanks.
