Beman Website Team Page

Hi,

We are building the new website for the Beman Project and we discussed to have a team page. Furthermore, this information is required when writing a blog post for the website (as the author of the blog).

You can see an example on how the final team page should look like on the mock-up website team page - Authors | The Beman Project

If you would like to feature on the team page of the Beman Project, please reply with your information, organized in the following format:

<AuthorTag>: # your author tag, this is what you will use in the header section for a log
name: # Your Real Name
title: # Your title, how do you want to be recognized by other people
url: # Your Github profile page
image_url: # A url for your profile image (if you want to put your Github profile image, you can go to your profile, then click on your image and open it in a new tab. From the new tab, copy the link).
page: true # if an author page should be generated for you. 
socials: # Include your socials (like your Github, X, Linkedin etc)
    github: <yourGithubId>

Here is an example for myself:

We didn’t have enough time for this topic today. Since next meeting is in 14 days, as a lead for the website development, I propose to take a decision on this thread.

My strong proposal would be to create this page:

  1. It would be great to have lots of us on that page! (my hope - everybody!)
  2. Consistency for blog posts - e.g., when having 3 posts with same author, make sure we do the same author description by default.
  3. Search/filter for all posts made by the same author. A small feature for our website.
  4. GitHub Team Page for Beman Project is not helping us by default. Check Please sign up for team @bemanproject/core-reviewers.

Notes: The Website development team would pre-populate the Team Page and will make sure to have the list updated - ofc, we need the information from each individual. That would means that when somebody will do a new post, it should have the authors already available.

I would also like people thoughts on this topic, but also asking @leads for a guidance / decision here. We have lots of things to do for our website, so we would prefer a quick conversation here, regardless of the decision. Thanks!

I would like to be added to the site, here is my info:

CC: @Jeff-Garland - this is the thread discussed in today’s meeting.

Getting back to this. This seems a little bit redundant with what github already does with project members, but I guess it’s probably unavoidable?
