And of course everything you make at the Wikimedia Foundation is freely licensed, so you can suggest your buddies use it to solve their problems, write public blog posts about it, talk about it at parties and conferences, and link to it on your résumé. Isn't open source nice? Thanks! Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation P.S. We also list these jobs in the monthly engineering report which gets mailed to this list. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

I'd love for you to take a look at the Wikimedia Foundation's job openings. For most of them, telecommuting is fine. That's a bit misleading, as only a couple of them offer a remote position (out of 19) Oh, and I noticed that you have some OTRS expertise -- could you maybe check out https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22622 and let us know if you have some free time to volunteer your help? :-) Is it really something where volunteers can help? I thought it wasn't possible (private mail concerns blocking volunteer action). BTW, why is WMF looking for a WordPress Developer? I think that if we outgrew the current blog, the way to go would be to mediawikize it, not to make something new still based in WP. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
