CX16 Who's Who

Post by mortarm »

Is there a list of the folks officially working on the CX16? I Know David's on it, and I have an idea about a couple others, but I'm curious about who the big dogs are.

Bit of a loaded question, though I realize that wasn't your intent. The answer kind of depends on how you define "officially working on".

There are five people who get paid for every unit sold, and they are the same five from the early days: David, Kevin, Michael, Frank, and Christian.

Three of those people no longer have any involvement in the project. Two of whom, Michael and Frank, needed someone else to step in and continue the work they were doing. To a very coarse approximation, Michael was replaced by mooinglemur and Frank was replaced by me. I'm not sure if lemur is an "official" member of the X16 team, but I'm definitely not.

If you define "official member of X16 team" as someone with the keys to the new GitHub project, or a repo within that project, the answer changes, but then people like David, who definitely is a member of the official team, does not have that level of access to the GitHub project.

I think the best answer is: "David and Kevin, everyone else is a volunteer not officially on the team."

Gotcha. I'm surprised David doesn't have full Github access, considering he started this whole thing. Based on what I've read here, I kinda figured Lemur was up there. I guess I was referring to the hard/softwear developers, the ones who decide what goes on the board, in the ROM, etc, but I get the picture.

Thanks for the info.
