Welcome to the Tcl community

This page contains links to various people-related pages. It also tells you how you can become a contributor or user of this Wiki

Scratch this one :( -- AM


Just wanted to see if anyone would help describe the tcl community. That way when someone wants to take a particular role, it is cleanly defined how to perform in that role. Also seeing some recent gripes of the tcl web site shows that strengthing the community is important.

Example roles:

core developer
TBD
vanilla tcl user
TBD
bug submitters
TBD
bug fixer
(it would be nice to have a write up on how to work with sourceforge)
feature creeper
TBD
advocate
See Tcl Advocacy for inspiration
extension writers
TBD
tcl packagers
TBD
wiki editor
Visit http://wiki.tcl.tk/ , read pages, find a page which has missing or incomplete information, click on the edit link, edit the text that appears in the box, click the save button.
champion
Advocate in shining armor
conference organizers
TBD
comp.lang.tcl lurker
Sit and read comp.lang.tcl and never post an informative reply or post a question unanswered after reading man pages and googling for information.

I'll have to admit I wish i could give more back to tcl but sometimes the learning curve for a particular role is steep.


lexfiend - A heresy, anti-role, or dirty little secret, depending on your point of view:

gadfly
Upset the status quo by asking upsetting or novel question, or attempt to stimulate innovation by being an irritant (courtesy of [L1 ]). All too easy to go overboard and become a troll.
