Hello!
At first I wanted to say that I truly admire the Libre.fm project, which
I found to be amazing. It's not just free in the both "free" word
meanings, but also provides the music that I really enjoy. Independent
artists can share their great music which is not poisoned by the
commercialism, and they can get bigger audience and recognition.
Personally, I found it to be a *way* better than Pandora.com which I
used to use for a short while in past.
I was using Free Software software for long years, however, I never did
much contribution to it. When I was young, I truly wanted to help, but
my skills were not good enough to do anything helpful. My "dreams" about
being the developer part of Free Software got lost over time. However,
today I am a professional programmer who makes his living by writing
code. I have realized that today I can realize my old "dreams"!
Not much long time ago, I was already thinking about contributing to
some projects. However, the projects I found were either not much
interesting for me or were "overcrowded" - what I would love to work on
is a great project that I would use myself, and would be developed by a
small team of developers (not by hundreds of people who do not know each
other). Libre.fm seem to be a perfect match!
Today, most of my work bases on PHP (version 5 and up) and MySQL/SQLite.
I have a nice looking piece of paper that I have obtained in order to
maximize my PHP skills (

) and in past I was working a little on PHP Docs (
https://people.php.net/user.php?username=kazymjir ).
Maybe I do not own much free time due to my work and personal things,
however, for sure I would find some time from time to time for Libre.fm.
If you, Libre.fm developers, would be interested in getting some help in
the development, you know my email! :-)
