I'm the maintainer of Project: Redcap. If you send email via the Contact form, I'm the one who reads it.

I am also author of a few Ars Magica products: see my author page for the list.

Project Priorities

Priority #1 is and always will be community outreach to try to get more contributors to Project: Redcap. Let us work together as one and grow hale and strong.

Since I have administrator access to the Wiki, I'm in the best position to deal with infrastructure issues like adding language support or importing new template. This requires a big chunk of time all at once, to figure out how to do it and then implement it in a safe way that won't disrupt the wiki. Currently, I am trying to customize the disambiguation template and looking into how we can get back to supporting non-English languages: especially now that ArM is about to be published in Spanish!

Another priority is to get the FAQ into good shape. That hasn't been updated in a while, and it is a bit of a challenge to figure out how best to implement it in Wiki.
