New Administrators Needed for Gemp-Lotr

[sgtdraino]

MarcinS just posted the following message to facebook:

It's obvious I do not have time to commit to this project anymore. However the project is (and always was) open source. So, if someone is willing to commit some time into it, fix bugs, add new features (new league decks, etc) - just send me a PR (Pull Request) on Github, I'll review, merge and will deploy to the server.
The link to the Github project:
https://github.com/MarcinSc/gemp-lotr
I know there were people that were willing to do some minor changes/fixes, so if you know any - just spread the word.

And so, the hue and cry begins! I'd love to help, but I feel like I don't have the technical know-how to wrap my head around this programming stuff. So, what players have we got that are:

A. Responsible.
B. Have the technical know-how.
C. Have the time to take care of this.

Thanks for getting this out there, draino!

I kicked off the influx of Pull Requests with committing all of the coding for the TS Sealed League, which has been probably the biggest community-related project over the course of this year.

From here I'll be scanning the code where known bugs are present and, when possible, working with TheGaffer to get his opinion on my proposed fixes.

We can try to solicit for more people to be on the gemp coding task force as well

From there I can put together all of the fixes into PRs which would be easy for MarcinS to implement.

So far that's just my broad plan of action to help in my own capacity, though organizing, facilitating, and managing. I'm not a coding expert either

Since a lot of people are too busy to commit fully, I think if it's approached with a team of people who will contribute when they can, we can make a solid impact.

I don't know much about coding, and I don't even know what a "Pull Request" is, but I AM very good at following procedure, if someone wants to talk me through it.

It's not too complicated. I learned how to use the site in a few hours, and MarcinS gave me some direction on different aspects of the site while I was making the Pull Request.

I could talk you through it, but it would be a lot easier to do via a skype call while we are both looking at the website.

I'd be happy to give anyone general direction on this.

PM coming your way sgtdraino
