wyctd | I started contributing to diaspora* after I began using it in a freelance project, a dating site. Diaspora* always amazed me with it's crazy inter-server communication, and it's privacy focus. I was met by a very friendly community - all helpful and funny people. I guess I'll be here to stay, and I invite you to do the same :wink: |
I don't feel that this should be as detailed as a profile. IMO an avatar with nick, diaspora ID, role and eventually github account should be enough. Then if visitors want to know your location, age or whatever, they can search you in diaspora* and see your real profile :)
That would imply to solve https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/pull/4596 first btw. @jaywink ? :p
The diaspora id field has a link to a mailto: which I don't think will work, will it?
@Flaburgan When the page will be designed, some of the data might be discarded. It's easier to get it all now, and remove some of it later, then going after that around the net, asking for more.
The minimum is the picture, and "wyctd" - these are required, without them it wouldn't make sense.
@Frittmann Nope, it won't. But the data is not meant to be used here. We'll restructure it later.
@dimaursu IMHO less is better - I'd just go for name (or whatever person wants to be called), area of contribution, wyctd and picture (again, whatever person wants to look like, not necessarely real picture :)). Of course link to diaspora* profile - maybe other website as extra link for those who want?
Also we need to keep the amount of profiles listed to the people who have been active in the project at some point in recent history, in a sufficient amount to count. I don't have a solution on what should be the line, but I don't think it should be a "throw your info and we will add it" kind of thing - more like a list of actual core community people?
Excellent and important initiative - the project page is so impersonal at the moment, no life in it, brought by real faces working for the project.
@Flaburgan I don't see #4596 as needed to be solved for this to happen. Yes it will improve people exposing public information via their diaspora* profiles, but this is totally separate :)

wyctd | I've been using diaspora* since getting an initial invite and have been a part of the community core since the project was given to the community in 2012. I love the energy in the project and want to do my part in pushing forward a truly free federated social web. |
There's some code to produce a contributor list on the old site, which I think is still a good way to generate a list of contributors: see https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora-project-site/blob/old/app/views/pages/get_involved.html.haml#L197 for starters.
While I agree it would be good to have a list of core people and other contributors to 'personalise' the project, I'd be against making any personal information mandatory. The old contributors page had simply:
The first three were grabbed from the linked profile, so would be changed automatically if they were changed in the account. This way, all that is needed is the person's diaspora ID and a brief sentence they want included as their description, so collecting the data is a lot easier than the proposal in this thread!
I'd not be happy to provide any more personal information than this, assuming I'm considered for inclusion. My description on the old site was 'Poorly drawn stickman. Based in UK.' That's enough for me!
I started a little initiative here: https://diaspora-fr.org/posts/1003125 @jaywink was the one with the idea. We want something like this, I think it would help built trust in diaspora* https://gnupg.org/people/index.html So, at the moment we want to collect the following information.
Disclose as much information as you feel comfortable.
The website "field" will be used to add a link to your avatar, maybe to your name, in case people want to see more about you.
The name of the page was inspired by this: http://www.humansofnewyork.com/ We can choose another one.
Please submit your data here, adding the line "personal profile" at the top of the comment. This should also server you as a reminder that this data will be published on the scary internet, so think hard, strong warrior.
