We've had a "people" page at https://bostonopen.dev/people for as long as we've had a website, but I just adjusted it so we can have profile pages.

For example, my profile page is at https://bostonopen.dev/people/pdurbin

Feedback is welcome, of course!

I wonder if it should be a tab to be easier to find. It could be nice for visitors to see who we are.

Yeah. Good idea. I'm definitely open to pull requests!

My main use case, by the way, is to have a "people" or "member" page to link to from my list at https://greptilian.com that includes links to me on GitHub, LinkedIn, etc.

In https://github.com/bostonopen/people/pull/15 I fixed the Zulip link so it actually goes somewhere public.

We've been simply appending names to the file:

% cat people.tsv

GitHub Username Zulip ID
pdurbin 652874
holmesworcester
HarshKapadia2 653420
orblivion 655359
...

Instead, should we keep it sorted by GitHub username?

Or sort it by how likely you are to interact with someone on the list? That is, by how often they come?

Or should we just leave it alone and keep appending? :sweat_smile:

Not that many people. Don't think sorting really matters yet.
