Hello everyone,

Today 15 years ago, Penny Leach committed the first chunk to the Mahara code base after months of work with the rest of the team in Aotearoa New Zealand. Lots of people have contributed to the project since in many different capacities. We wrote a news item for the Catalyst website and will publish three blog posts looking back a bit over the next few weeks.

Many thanks to those who sent their greetings as audio of video. These greetings are all combined in a video that also highlights their work and how some implementations have changed over the years. I hope you'll enjoy going down a bit of memory lane with Penny Leach, Mitsuhiro Yoshida, Teresa MacKinnon, Gregor Anželj, Mandia Mentis, Wendy Holley-Boen, Ingrid D'Souza, Shin-Ichiro Kubota, Yoichi Tanaka, Makoto Miyazaki, Lisa Donaldson, Klaus Himpsl-Gutermann, Sigi Jakob, and Sam Taylor.

At Catalyst, we look forward to continuing to work with everyone in the community to keep Mahara going and thriving.

Thank you all

Kristina
on behalf of the Mahara project team
