• Margot joined us for the first time. She's a graphic designer, does some code (Ruby, PHP), with a history in print design. She's interested in connecting with other designers and developers on a more regular basis. We helped her set up rel-me links on her site, log in to the wiki, join the IRC chat, and debug some webfont+CSS issues.
