<p dir="auto">Following on Boris's message,</p>
<ol>
<li value=1><p dir="auto">(& 2.) I'm Claire Connelly. I'm the sysadmin for the math department at Harvey Mudd College (in Claremont, CA). In addition to sysadmin work, I have gotten myself involved with the department's senior thesis program, do some general LaTeX support at the college whenever asked, and have written thesis and Clinic report classes, along with several other LaTeX document classes for various things (e.g., the icmmcm class for the MCM competition).</p></li>
<li value=3><p dir="auto">I've been using LaTeX since 1998 or 1999, as I'd heard cool things about it, my partner was working on her dissertation (in LaTeX), and it appealed to my interest in books and typography. But I learned much of what I know about LaTeX from editing the third edition of George Grätzer's <em>Math into LaTeX</em>, which happened after I'd responded to George's request for feedback on his <em>First Steps in LaTeX</em>. In addition to the copyediting, I also learned a lot about typesetting, TeX, and indexing (never again, I hope).</p></li>
<li value=4><p dir="auto">I would love to have good resources to point people at that will help them to learn how to use TeX and friends, and, I dearly hope, to do so in a way that encourages them to write good, clear, clean code.</p></li>
<li value=5><p dir="auto">As with Boris, I can write and edit, do some software (Perl, especially; also Debian and RPM packaging), and provide feedback. I also have access to a group of faculty and students to experiment on, and I might be able to get the college or the department to support hosting materials.</p></li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">I'm looking forward to seeing how things go and helping where I can!</p>
