Like many open source projects, DragonFly is a technical project that uses a team of geographically separated people. There are no restrictions on who can contribute or how you can contribute, other than peer standards. Listed here are some of the people who have made this project possible.
Project Leader:
Matthew Dillon
is known for creating the DICE C compiler on the Amiga, and
later co-founding BEST Internet in San Francisco. Matt has also
contributed code to the FreeBSD project and the Linux kernel for
systems such as VM and NFS.
Matt is the founder of the DragonFly BSD project. Matt is also the principal code contributor to DragonFly, and supports the website and other online resources for this project. He has been working on or completed DragonFly projects such as variant symlinks, MPIPE, the slab allocator, the namecache, LWKT, the 'live CD', AMD64 work, and much more, including coordination on projects other contributors have submitted.
