<p>Hi,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Just as we have for many years, CDOT is once again doing Webmaker development work this summer. I wanted to take a moment to introduce the CDOT researchers working with us.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Many of you already know Ali Al Dallal <span style="font-size: 12pt;">(aali on irc, @alicoding on twitter), who was one of the main people behind Webmaker's localization last year. Ali is continuing with us, and joining him are:</span></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>* Yoav Gurevich (ygdot on irc)<br>
</p>
<p>* Gideon Thomas (gthomas on irc, @rgideonthomas on twitter)<br>
</p>
<p>* Kieran Sedgwick (sedge on irc, @theSedgeHammer on twitter, some of you will also remember Kieran from last summer--he's joining again too).<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>These 4 are going to work with me on a set of new projects within Webmaker. We will be building a number of new tools and services to allow more advanced web authoring, such as Appmaker Components. You'll hear us refer to these as Nimble[1], MakeDrive[2],
etc.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We'll be blogging and demoing regularly as we work, and I look forward to showing you updates from the team.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Meanwhile, I wanted to introduce them, and let you know that they'll be working full-time on Webmaker for the next 4 months.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Dave<br>
