Siobhan McKeown is a Word Ninja at Audrey Capital where she writes about WordPress, deals with documentation, and has nightmares about the Codex. She\u2019s currently working on an open source book about the history of WordPress. She spends her days delving into the brains of its early developers and community members. When she\u2019s not worrying about the finer details of forking and the GPL, she\u2019s helping out with the project\u2019s future by wrangling WordPress\u2019 documentation. In her spare time, she writes and edits for Smashing Magazine, eats, reads, and travels under the sea looking for manta rays.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\nBill Erickson<\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/0.gravatar.com\/avatar\/ae510affa31e5b946623bda4ff969b67?s=200&d=monsterid&r=G\")
