This one: https://cocalc.com/about/team

I think that it would look better if photos were on the left of the text, not right. This may be very subjective, however. Was it some standard component that placed them automatically on the right?

Blaec keeps emphasizing that LinkedIn is the most important one. Shouldn't we then have its icon first?

I would put GitHub second, it feels natural for a software company. BUT - all github handles except for mine are CoCalc, not personal. Is that on purpose? Seems to negate the point of listing it under each member name.

This is indeed due to a standard component - this one in particular: https://github.com/sagemathinc/cocalc/blob/c028fd8f6cfef8bc1ac6115aa43c59f17f15eb43/src/packages/next/components/landing/index-list.tsx. We could probably update this component to have a configurable image location.

As it stands, these are in alphabetical order just as a sensible default. Happy to move them around (:

I'll have mine link to my personal GitHub page as well; for everyone else's, those were copied as shown in about.cocalc.com but I think it probably makes sense to remove the ones that link back to the company (except perhaps for William's).

to me, this would be the wrong side. we don't sell "products", where showing the image as the first to be scanned by readers is more important. instead, it's the emphasis on the people.
