Project Coordinators

phpGroupWare is administered on behalf of the community by the Coordination Team. The team comprises 4 permanent members - the Project Founders, and 6 elected Coordinators. These 10 people work together to make sure everything is kept on track.

Project coordinators sometimes hang out in the #phpgroupware channel on irc.gnu.org.
