Doubling Up
October 30, 2009 in Community, News
I’d like to congratulate John James Jacoby (aka jjj) for doubling the size of the core development team and gaining commit access to the project!
BuddyPress is growing, and at a pace that just one core developer cannot possibly keep up with. I’ve been looking to expand the size of the core development team for a while now and I’m excited to be able to announce the first stop along that road.
If you’re a regular in the forums or trac you’ll already know who John is. He has been an unrelenting force for some time with quick responses to questions and quality core patches.
John will be helping with bug fixing to begin with, then looking to take on some of the new features listed on the roadmap. Congratulations again John, I’m very excited to have you on the core team.

Thanks Andy and thank you everyone! It’s an honor and I’m excited at the opportunity to play a bigger role in BuddyPress’s growth and development. Andy does a rock solid job and I’m happy to be able to lift whatever weight off his shoulders I can.
I’d like to thank Jeff, DJPaul, Burt, Nicola, and everyone else that answers questions, submits patches, and generally tries to keep the house clean. I couldn’t think of a cooler community to be part of and I really appreciate everyone’s support.
Woo hoo!

Does anybody know why some Usernames here are linked to their profiles and other’s aren’t? Mine isn’t linked and I wonder why.
nickrita said on November 1, 2009
Oh, sorry, mine is linked, too.
But on my own buddypress installation the comment-authors aren’t linked. Mmmh.
