Developers Bios

This is a (hopefully) complete list of all people that have worked on ScummVM or contributed code. The idea is that we want to see where everybody comes from and maybe a small biography. This could be anything from "Loves coding on ScummVM while working on Windows Vista source at Microsoft" to the next bestseller at your local bookstore: you decide.

I have created a Perl script that automatically parses the GPS information on this Wiki page and incorporates it onto World and Europe maps of ScummVM Developers of various resolutions using xplanet. So if you do not want to add a small bio we would at least ask you to enter the GPS coordinates of your location so the maps will be populated. Please enter your location information according to the following wiki syntax to facilitate later parsing:

:Location: Country, City, GPS XXnXX, YYeYY
:Location: The Netherlands, Amsterdam, GPS 52n22, 4e54

You can easily look up your own GPS coordinates at astro.com. The GPS coordinates are directly copy-pasted from the astro.com results.

Also, if you know the (partial) location for another developer and you don't think he/she (do we have any females working on ScummVM?) can enter it themselves, feel free to add these too for maximum results. Please realize that some of the data on this page may be inaccurate, or hopelessly old and neglected, especially the website links, so remember to take these with a grain of salt :P

enjoy!

Go here to see more maps of ScummVM Developers in Europe & the World. The high-resolution maps also contain developers names with the locations. This is a particularly good one.
