I used to (many moons ago) know the answer to this, but with the WD
merge and realignment of stars I'm no longer sure what 'Selenium' is
comprised of anymore, and who is the 'lead' for that component. Or the
rest of those who not only have interest in a component, but can action
on that interest.

I think such a list would be useful for a couple reasons: primarily to
know who to lobby for changes or bug fixes, but also identify where gaps
exist for recruiting (see the discussion yesterday or the day before
about PHP).

I'll start a list and people can correct or add to it...

Selenium 2.x - Simon Stewart (lead), Patrick Lightbody, Jari Bakken
- C#
- Java
- Python 2.x
- Ruby

Selenium 1.x - ?
- Core
- RC
- Java (JUnit)
- Java (TestNG
- Ruby
- Python 2.x
- Python 3.x
- Perl
- PHP
- Erlang
- C#

Selenium IDE - Jason Huggins (lead)

Selenium Grid - ?

Documentation - Paul Grandjean (lead), Tarun Kumar, Santiago Suarez
Ordo�ez (Santi), Dave Hunt, Noah Sussman

And what about Bromine? Is that really part of the fold, or more of an
'external project that is hosted by openqa that happens to work with Se'?

this would be nice to have, although I'm wondering if people's involvement is too fluid to be useful beyond a few weeks?

I'm happy to speak for myself :)

I'm heavily involved with:

Selenium 2.x: Java
Selenium 1.x: Core, RC (Java)

And involved to some degree with:

Selenium 2.x: All languages
Selenium 1.x: Java, C#
Documentation: Mainly proof reading atm

I also keep an eye on every checkin to trunk and at some point will
need to start integrating Selenium 2 into the Grid.

Perl is missing from that list. Is that because it is not planned or
lack of people working on it?

One of the major problems is a lack of a strong owner for any perl
work. We're still figuring out how best to fit some of the language
bindings into the 2.x world, and we'd appreciate some input from the
community. Your thoughts?

I can help to review Perl examples, if some are submitted.

I thought about writing the Perl examples, but (aside from time
constraints) I haven't used Perl for testing in several years so I
didn't feel qualified.

However I am a relatively competent Perl hacker and I certainly will
read any code submitted and provide feedback.

I'm on a similar boat at Noah. I'm a pretty decent Perl hacker myself,
but I don't consider myself a Perl guru. But, we did recently
developed a whole testing framework (in Perl) based on Selenium. So,
there is definitely a lot of motivation on my part to see that Perl
driver development is active. So here is what I can offer - if no one
(more experienced than me) steps up, I can jump in & help do some
initial work. Let the community review it & see if it is acceptable.
And if it is, I'd continue working on it as I have to support it for
my team here at work any way.

We could also ask Luke Closs, who has helped us with perl support in the past...

Has any one contacted Luke Closs regarding the Perl driver?

Not that I'm aware of. Patrick? Does anyone have his email address?

I just emailed Luke to see if he's interested. Please email me
off-list if you'd like to get pulled in to the discussion.
