Wikimedia Hackathon 2015/Buddies

Let's use this page to organize Hackathon Buddies in Lyon.

Looking for a buddy

 * Aaron Halfaker (Halfak (WMF) / EpochFail) - Wiki tools that use artificial intelligence and affect Wikipedia's social dynamics -- hopefully for the better :)
 * Dan Garry (Deskana (WMF) / Deskana) - If you like mobile apps, pick me! :-)
 * MarkTraceur (talk) - maybe interested in gadgets for micro-edits or working on getting Flickr import enabled for all users on Commons
 * Nik Everett (manybubbles/NEverett (WMF)) - Mostly wikidata lately
 * Niharika - Just about anything. I'd like to take this as an opportunity to learn.
 * Dmitry Brant (DBrant (WMF)) - Android app development: let's build more nifty mobile gadgets to encourage users to consume and contribute to Wikipedia :)
 * Chad - Planning to do a sprint on config changes for WMF wikis that they want/need done.
 * Corey Floyd (CFloyd (WMF)) - iOS App development - I want to experiment with new UX paradigms and develop some new, useful, and fun ways to interact with wikipedia and wikidata on mobile.
 * Timo Tijhof (Krinkle) - Most anything. Getting started with software development, inner workings of VisualEditor, how countervandalism and patrolling work, cheesy 80s TV shows, pepperoni pizza, ..

Buddies not yet confirmed
Work-in-progress, some details (i.e. travel plans) still might need to be confirmed.
