Contributors to Oscailt

Principal Authors

Oscailt is a collective project of the technical group of Indymedia Ireland.

Version 1 and 2 were written almost entirely by Vinnie.

Some features in versions 2.0x were also written by Terry and Chekov.

The new structure of Version 3 was designed by Chekov and written by Chekov and Vinnie, with contributions from Terry.

We are proud to be able to contribute this software to the indymedia network and to the free software community.

Incorporated Code

Oscailt uses MagpieRSS for fetching and parsing feeds.

The SQL Layer was initially based on the SQL layer in PHP Nuke, but has since changed substantially.

Other than that, to the best of our knowledge, all code is 100% original.
