Since Collin Hildinger dropped out of the DNET challenge about 2 years ago, we have effectively been without a team captain.
I wrote Decibel at DNET a month or two ago, mostly looking for a way to get in touch with Collin (who seems to have fallen off the face of the Earth). Decibel posted a message on our team page stating that I wanted to be captain! Well, that wasn’t exactly true, but time passed and nobody complained about the potential management change, so today, Decibel sent me the captain’s password.
I am happy to report that I have accepted the postion and hope to take our team into its second decade of operation.
I have been working on the DNET challenge for 9 years this month, all of it on Team Warped!
Please note that the captain is simply the contact person for the team – it is not like I get a 7-figure salary and a corporate jet or anything.
As my first official act, I have slightly updated the OS/2 blurb and redirected the link from the IBM Warp site to the eComStation site. I also put a link to the Cowboy site and this blog, inviting any other Team Warped members to drop by and chat or post their stats. I left most of the rest of the text the same.
The old IBM Warp link mostly talked about moving off OS/2 and on to windoze and Linux, so I didn’t think it was appropriate.
I invite other team members to submit text for our Distributed.net Team Warped page. I am still running Warp 4, so I don’t know much about eCS. If someone has some interesting information about eCS that would fit on the Team Warped description page, send it to me and I’ll be happy to post it. It has to be short – about the same length as the current text, so don’t get too long winded.
I hope to hear some ideas for the team page soon!
