Name: Jalil

Education Level: BSc. EE. 1983 Nottingham University, United Kingdom.

Skills
   Progr : Any Language.
   HTML: All
   CSS: All
   Graphics: Only 2D, never had the time for 3D and it looks really beautiful. Maybe in future.
   Other:
Retired now, I used to do System Level Design and Architecture down to Bits, Bytes, had to deal with Software/Firmware/Hardware and Protocols, but luckily not all at the same time...lol. Expericence is in Real Time Online Systems, a real headache if you ask me.

Weak in databases, last venture was dBase pre-windows days, then never looked at databases again ( never needed to ). SQL and mySQL scares the good spirit in me, but it kinda looks familiar. ( ok, instead of add or append you have insert...amazing how humans create terms for things which are actually the same ).

It is the design of the Joomla! that interests me, in that i see it can develop into a very strong system for content management, given some adjustments. Some very good systems design remain in existence today due to the philosophy behind the design, not due to the choice of language, and not due to commercial reasons (they are extremely expensive !). Others have become ancient history. Also Joomla! has the added advantage that PHP itself is very well designed. It's a wining combination. However, the design of Joomla itself is very good and hence will be able to stand on its own, irrespective of the language it is built upon. My salute and congratulations to the Joomla! Developers.

Tools
Just need a good editor. I use various but i find that Notetab Light performs extremely well. I don't need IDEs.
   
How long have you been using Joomla?
Maybe just under a year as of now ( Augus 2007 ), and discovered it while looking around for a good CMS to make webpages.

How much time can you devote to this effort?
Uncertain of this at this stage, i do this as a hobby. But unless i'm called to do something big, i'll be around to learn a bit, and help a bit. Doing this is fun for me.

Much of this work involves using the following DBMS environments: MS-SQL, MS-Access, DB3 (Apollo DBMS Engine), and MS-VFP. I'm also the webmaster for the local High School Marching Band where I've implemented Joomla!.

Tools: For PHP and HTML I use whatever I can, mostly text editors. Have tried a few IDEs in Windows environment none mentioned in the forums. 

How long have you been using Joomla? 3 Months after testing about 15 other CMSs

How long have you been using Joomla?
Since Joomla 1.10

How much time can you devote to this effort?
I can work as much time as needed.

Now, I can't do much yet. I'm planning on learning a lot more through this than really helping much with other people. However, if someone needs help with something I can handle, I am all for it. And I will do my best, all of the time. Like I said, I can't do much, but what I can do, I do it right the first time. Or, if I do mess up, I fix it.

I've got ideas for extensions for joomla, but not the experience to actually do it, so, I'd like to be a part of this!

Education Level: BS in mathematics, sigh... it might as well be an art history degree

Skills
  Programming:  I'm on the BASIC train with Tim... did some VB and now trying to get functional in PHP
  HTML: Extensive
  CSS: Intermediate to advanced
  Graphics: Photoshop skills fantastic, artistic vision not so much, intermediate Illustrator
  Other:

Tools: my big skill is picking up software concepts fast, so I'm at least intermediate at the entire Adobe suite, and can translate those skills to other software pretty easily.  I used to be a database administrator in Access, so I'm learning to translate those skills to MySQL now (I can already do quite a bit for editing, but I'm working on broad programming concepts)
 
How long have you been using Joomla? about 18 months

How much time can you devote to this effort? varies, but I'm trying to focus an hour a day on programming tutorials etc ... so maybe 5 hours a week just for J!101

How long have you been using Joomla?
Almost 4 months

How much time can you devote to this effort?
Depends, project-based is probably best.

I am still a Joomla and coding beginner but I feel I am getting to grips with it bit by bit. I made static websites in the past, and I am excited about the possibilities of a good CMS and have various ideas of what can be done - though I have not completed any site yet! My analytic and creative skills are reasonable and I tend to look at things from a user's convenience point of view. I can bring in professional expertise regarding the legal, fiscal, commercial and other aspects of projects and startups.
