The Community Working Group Ops Team handles registration and moderation for Social.Coop. As a result of our call for new working group members last fall, we have been bringing two new Community Working Group Ops Team members onboard. We would like to officially add Steve and Gilles to the Community Working Group. Here's a quick intro from each of them about who they are and why they want to join.

Steve (@steve_g):

Hey! I've used and then worked in tech for most of my life and I've watched how the corporatization and centralization of the tech we use has increased and is causing us all harm. The federated web and the cooperative model that social.coop is operating with is the future that I want to see in the world (not just in tech!). I would love to help foster and grow that as part of the CWG.

Gilles (@DePemig):

I'm a psychologist, statistician, musician, software enthusiast and a fan of democracy. I'm dutch, living and hiking in Basel, Switzerland, committed to helping the open social web thrive, locally and globally.
