FIXME


This page is severely outdated. If your name's not here, trust us - it's not out of spite, this page is just going to take a lot of editing to be worthwhile.
A thought - there should also probably (at some point) be an "Content Credits" page which associates particular pieces of 2D, 3D and Musical art with their creator (I suggest indexing by artist).


Project Leads

Name Roles
Daniel Horn VS Creator. Original Mover. Head honcho. Big cheese (though he's not big on cheese). Many years and mountains of code later, he's still here and we wouldn't be without him. Fortunately for all of us, we don't let him make all the models in Emacs anymore ;-).
Patrick Horn Lead Python developer, lead networking developer.
Jack Sampson Vega Strike Minister of Information. Arbiter of canon. Herder of cats (Executive Art Director). VS fiction lead. Auxiliary code mangler. Procrastinates on VS by working towards his Ph.D.

Emeritus

Alan Shieh One of the founding fathers of VS, Alan has gone on to discover he actually liked being outside when not working towards his Ph.D. Last seen kayaking, biking, and publishing papers (or something like that).
