Dear heaven. This is one of the most beautiful pages on the Web. Er, according to its creator, anyway. Don't forget to enable popunders so that you can hear the music!

Warning: If you are subject to migraines, do not click the link.


In no way related to the above, can someone remind me where to go to find out about joining the Dreamwidth coding team, and attendant helpfulness?

Halp, I think my eyeballs overloaded. I can't wait (spoiler: I can totally wait) to go see it again with the sound on!

I have no involvement with coding, but the Beginning Dev checklist on the wiki seems like a place to start?

Ah, thanks for the link. Sadly, my Beast isn't familiar with any of the languages and doesn't really feel inclined to start again with a new set of stuff. Oh well.

Sorry about the eyeballs...

The Dev team uses mostly Perl, if that helps.

I'm not on the dev team, but I can get in touch with them, if you need?

There's also the [site community profile] dw_dev community, Bugzilla and Github for DW.

It doesn't look as though I'll be able to persuade my Beast into joining the dev team, but thanks for the offer. I'll keep the information in mind!

Even without music, I think it does a fine job of getting its point across. Yikes.

Edited to ask: where did you even find that? And how? And WHY? O_O

I found it via Pharyngula, which is generally an excellent blog. These lapses are rare, but I simply had to share!

I'm on the email list for dreamwidth that lists all their coding updates and such when they happen. It just so happens that the most recent one (dated 6-11-13) has a variety of contact info at the bottom for people who want to join the various Dreamwidth teams. I can forward it on to you, if you want.

Many thanks for the offer - sadly, I think my Beast has decided he doesn't want to learn any more computer languages, so he won't be participating. A pity, because I have no desire whatsoever to code myself, but he's done it for fun in the past and I hoped to contribute by making him useful!
