17 Bishop Allen Dr.<br>Cambridge, MA 02139<br>middle two green doors<br><br>development wiki: <a href="http://thoughtandmemory.org/trac" target="_blank">http://thoughtandmemory.org/trac</a><br><br>please email <a href="mailto:dev-flock@mit.edu">dev-flock@mit.edu</a>, which I will add you all to if you are<br>
not already on it, or someone on the team if you have questions or<br>requests or updates.<br><br>if you encounter any impediments to getting work done, especially at<br>the beginning when it comes to setting up your environment or ramping<br>
up on django,etc, don't hesitate to shoot me an email<br>(<a href="mailto:lucy@thoughtandmemory.org">lucy@thoughtandmemory.org</a>)<br><br>msg content:::::::::::::::::::::::<br><br>I can't tell you all how excited I am by recent developer additions.<br>
* Dan has been pumping away at the backend like whoa--he'll commit any day now!<br> * and we hope to bring Chris Pepe on board to do backend work, too.<br>Here, backend could mean database scheming, python coding and<br>
eventually SMS phone stuff.<br> * Shaunalynn and Chia are ramping up on front-end django template,<br>HTML, CSS, javascript and flash stuff.<br> * Eggar, I know we haven't contacted you in a while, but did awesome<br>
work, and I hope you feel comfortable jumping back into the sway as we<br>move forward.<br> * If you're on dev-flock and haven't committed anything yet give a<br>holla (ping) so we know you're alive.<br><br>To get things rolling I'd like to have a kick-off meeting for new<br>
developers to meet the team and figure out the appropriate<br>communication process, both within the backend and frontend subgroups,<br>and especially across groups on the python dict <--> template<br>interface. Some of us are jumping into this particular framework for<br>
the first time, which I expect will quickly become old news, but all<br>the more reason to get rolling in person.<br><br>There will be coop (we're meeting at the co-operative (coop) where<br>Clay and I live) or take-out dinner afterwards.<br>
<br>Let me know if you can or cannot make the meeting. We don't meet<br>often, so I encourage you to come if you can.<br><br>Bring your laptop if you have one and are having trouble getting setup<br>with the system. If you want, I'm happy to meet with people before the<br>
meeting, say 4pm, to help with django/python/mysql/sqlite3/etc setup.<br><br>word,<br><font color="#888888">Lucy.<br></font></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Clay Ward<br>President and Founder<br>Thought And Memory, Inc<br>
