I did this so that other people would be able to find out about.

Are you behind this site? Can you tell me a bit more about it? If you've used it, where it's hosted, why it's free, and why you think it should be at the top of the list.

drewdeponte commented 10 years ago

Sure,

I am behind the site. I am a Staff Engineer/Architect at ReachLocal, Inc. I built it as part of our 2013 ReachLocal 24 hour Hackathon. Shortly after the hackathon I proposed that the company open source it and they approved. I chose this a project because I had been attempting to do a decent amount of remote pair programming and found it to be a pain. I also manage a number of development teams that are remote so I thought they would find it valuable as well.

The repositories are available via github tmuxme and tmuxme_client.

I personally pay for the domain and necessary hosting costs for tmux.me. I provide it as a free service because I love the development community and like to give back. I use it on a regular basis and a number of developers I work with at ReachLocal, Inc. use it as well.

Also, I am open to it evolving and changing. For example I made it so that it has its own concept of accounts and public ssh key storage. I did this because I needed it to be able to be used inside our corporate network and with developers that don't necessarily have a GitHub account. Ideally, it would be nice if you could just sign in with your GitHub account and it would use your public keys from GitHub.

Also, I can imagine other features being useful. Maybe search for person by name to find their tumxme identifier, etc. It is all open source so I welcome suggestions, pull requests, bugs, tickets, etc.

Oh, forgot to answer your "where is it hosted?" question. Currently, I am hosting it on Digital Ocean.

In terms of why it should be at the top of the list. I apologize if that wasn't proper etiquette. I looked at the last few changes that got merged in and looked like they all were added to the top of their respective sections so I added tmuxme to the top of its respective section. Also, I figured that it might be posted in reverse chronological order (most recent at the top). Beyond that I didn't see any specifications as to where the proper location in the list would be. If I missed something please point it out. Also, please enlighten me as to what the process is for finding out where in the list an item should go.

Closing this as I have since shut down tmux.me.
