| ==Overall guidance==
| |
| | |
| [http://dougiamas.com/ Martin Dougiamas] is the founder and manager for the whole Moodle project. Since 2005 there is a [http://moodle.com/hq/ team of people] employed over at [http://moodle.com/ Moodle HQ] in Perth, Australia helping him keep on top of things (or at least within sight of the top!).
| |
| | |
| The Moodle software package is [[License|Copyright © 1999 onwards, Martin Dougiamas under the GNU GPL]].
| |
| | |
| ==Key Moodle Roles==
| |
| | |
| * Lead Developer - Martin Dougiamas
| |
| * Knight in Shining Armor - Eloy Lafuente
| |
| * Translation Coordinator - Koen Roggemans
| |
| * Security Officer - Petr Škoda (skodak)
| |
| * Documentation Steward - [[User:Helen|Helen Foster]]
| |
| * Themes Manager - Urs Hunkler
| |
| * Stable Release Manager - Martin Langhoff
| |
| | |
| ==Main developers==
| |
| | |
| Endless thanks from all of us goes to those who have contributed substantial and ongoing amounts of time to writing Moodle code and helping it grow. These are people who "get" what developing Moodle is all about and without whom Moodle would be a far lesser thing:
| |
| | |
| '''Eloy Lafuente (stronk7), Ray Kingdon, Williams Castillo, Petri Asikainen, Henrik Kaipe, Zbigniew Fiedorowicz, Gustav Delius, Thomas Robb, Janne Mikkonen, Jon Papaioannou (pj), Scott Elliott, Shane Elliott, Roberto Pinna (Bobo), Mike Churchward, Petr Škoda (skodak), Penny Leach, Martin Langhoff, Urs Hunkler'''
| |
| | |
| ==Other contributors==
| |
| | |
| Many other people have contributed (and are still contributing) with constructive discussions, support, testing and various chunks of code and documentation. This list is long and always changing, but some names include (in the order they were added):
| |
| | |
| '''Peter C. Taylor, Art Lader, Matt Hope, Tom Murdock, Sébastien Namèche, James Miller, Dustin Rue, Holger Schadeck, Giovanni Tummarello, John Windmueller, Sean Keogh, Mitsuhiro Yoshida, Greg Barnett, Mark Kimes, Mary Hunter, Russell Jungwirth, Przemyslaw Stencel, John "Captain" Eyre, Paula Edmiston, Howard Miller, Claudio Tavares, P. Timothy Ervin, Bob Calder, Ursula Raab, David Delgado, Mad Alex, Gaëtan Frenoy, Bernard Boucher, Bryan Williams, Rob Butner, Koen Roggemans, David Scotson, Torsten Anderson, Eamon Costello, Hannes Gassert, Andrew Walker.'''
| |
| | |
| Sorry if we've forgotten to include your name here - the Moodle community is large and active so this list is difficult to maintain! Please make your suggestions on the discussion tab for this page.
| |
| | |
| Thanks also to everyone of you who have
| |
| * donated via the [http://moodle.org/donations Donations page],
| |
| * contributed to the [http://moodle.org/bugs bug tracker], and
| |
| * participated in the [http://moodle.org/community Moodle Community]
| |
| * used our [http://moodle.com commercial Moodle Partner services]
| |
| | |
| ==Translators==
| |
| | |
| One of Moodle's strengths is the number of translations it has. Each translation takes many hours of work, as there are over 1000 phrases to translate (plus hundreds of help files!). Many of the languages have more than one contributor, sometimes working together and sometimes working serially.
| |
| | |
| Maintaining a list of all these wonderful people is too difficult, so please look at the [http://download.moodle.org/lang/ Language download page] for names and details.
| |
| | |
| The Translation Coordinator is Koen Roggemans (translation@moodle.org).
| |
| | |
| ==Themes==
| |
| | |
| Themes give Moodle sites some colour and life. Here are all the themes carried as part of the Moodle 1.5 distribution, along with their authors:
| |
| | |
| * '''standard''' by Martin Dougiamas
| |

| |
| | |
| == Documentation writers ==
| |
| | |
| Documentation writing is coordinated by [[User:Helen|Helen Foster]]. We would like to thank the many people who have contributed their work to create various parts of Moodle documentation, among others: '''Przemyslaw Stencel, Matt Riordan, Bryan Williams, Ray Lawrence, Jason Cole, Darren Smith, Sylvia Maciaszczyk and Rafal Morusiewicz'''.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Moodle libraries==
| |
| | |
| Some of Moodle's libraries were written by other people, and are being redistributed as part of Moodle under their respective open source licenses that thankfully allow us to do so. My thanks go out to the authors of all these excellent products - without them Moodle would be missing important functionality. Copyright information for each package is included below:
