- Coding (I don't know Ruby on Rails, but I'd like to learn! My background is mostly in C and in the kind of handwavy pseudo-code used in places like algorithms classes. I went to graduate school in computer science, but left after the first quarter.)
- Design (I don't care much about the graphics being perfect, but I care a lot about accessibility for people with disabilities and other people accessing the site through less-common configurations. I used to do a lot of print layout stuff in the 90s but don't have much online experience with the design process as opposed to discovering that accessibility was not considered during the aforementioned process. Disclosure: I don't use a screenreader or such things to access the internet myself. I do, however, use a computer without Flash installed as my primary computer for unrelated reasons and often run into places where the non-Flash fallback is not graceful.)
- Communications (I can do this, and enjoy working on things involving this, but it's of less interest to me than the other two things. This is what my undergrad degree is in, and then I went on to get a master's in education, which has a lot of skill overlap.)
Note: this weekend (August 10th-12th) and next weekend (August 17th-19th) I will be without computer access. I'll be around on weekdays, including the week in the middle.
