kareila: Rosie the Riveter "We Can Do It!" with a DW swirl (dw)
[personal profile] kareila
Every few months, I run through [site community profile] changelog compiling a list of who has been contributing patches to our code repository, with the understanding that this is not a competition, or any sort of "high score" list. It's intended as a guide for casual developers, to discern not only our most prolific contributors, but also those who have contributed to the project most recently and therefore would be more likely to provide a timely, informed response to development questions. That is why the list is sorted by "Latest" instead of "Changes".

In general, one entry in [site community profile] changelog equals one point in the "Changes" column, but fractional points are awarded for collaborative efforts — the most common example being a new S2 theme, where usually half credit is awarded to the theme author and the other half to the person who converts the theme into a code patch. Due to the nature of development, some changes are massive contributions of new code, and others are tiny tweaks; there is no correlation with the amount of effort involved. We are grateful to everyone who helps to improve Dreamwidth, in ways large or small.

I last compiled this list at the beginning of June. Since that time, we have welcomed four new contributors: [personal profile] dunvi, [personal profile] swaldman, [personal profile] carisma_sensei, and [personal profile] kunzite. Congratulations and thank you again!

This run was difficult to put together because of the transition from Mercurial to Github. If you don't think you've been properly credited, please let me know!
