Welcome to the WPS working group
Welcome to the WPS working group publication. We hope you enjoy your stay. We will be serving tea and light snacks shortly. But first…
Who are we?
The WPS working group, as far as I know, was born from the musings of Thomas Cox and a fine young gentleman named Branden Espinoza. Thomas, formerly an employee of Block.one, now the interim Executive Director of EOS Alliance, an organisation with the sole purpose of “empowering EOS for all.” I stumbled upon the telegram channel in May. After I summoned the courage to respond to a call for volunteers, I was asked to work on a piece of work to demonstrate my skills. Being a project manager, I chose to work on a risk register. Shortly after, I was included in the working group. The groups are in a constant state of flux, with some volunteers rising to the challenge of a new day, and others hanging up their coat for a while. The working group is not sponsored by any organisation, it is independent. As of today, the current working group comprises of two sections:
System Design Group
Thomas Cox, David Margulies, Josh Kauffman (EOS Canada), Branden Espinoza, Todor Karaivanov, Orchid Kim (EOSYS), Domenic Thomas, Chris Pollard, Larry Ma (EOS Cannon), Mao Yifeng (EOSReal), Joseph Fanelli (EOS Asia), Leo Seo (EOSNodeOne)
System Development Group
Jae Chung (HKEOS), Hugo Campanella (HKEOS), Adrian Hunter (Saltblock), Boram Kim (EOSeoul), Thomas Do (EOSeoul), Syed Jafri (EOS Cafe Calgary), Alfred Cheuk (HKEOS), Sheldon Huang(EOS Shenzhen), Abbas Ali (Blockmatrix), Kedar Iyer (Libertyblock), Harry Kim (EOSYS), Sungmin Ma(EOSeoul), Darren Tay (EOS Shenzhen), Michael Yeates (EOSDAC, advisor), Eric Björk (EOS sw/eden, advisor), John Milburn (advisor)
How do you get involved?
Easy. First thing’s first, come to the WPS public channel and say hi. I’m currently managing some of the communications, so you should notice the pinned updates. This should help you get familiar with things. And please reach out. I can assure you that despite first appearances, no one in the group will bite. Even Doghouse, who can seem a little grouchy. He has a soft heart, I can assure you.
As a group, we believe in the power of the eosio ecosystem and the power of people. Join us.
