Who is behind Bauble

Bauble started as a one-man project, by Brett Adams. He wrote Bauble for the Belize Botanical Garden, and later on adapted it for a couple of other users who asked him to use it. Brett made Bauble a commons, by releasing it under a GPL license.

After years of stagnation Mario Frasca took responsibility of updating Bauble, and it is now Mario Frasca writing this, enhancing the software, looking for users, requesting feedback...

So currently behind Bauble there’s again one developer, but much more importantly, a small but growing global users community.

Translations are provided by volunteers who mostly stay behind the scenes, translating a couple of missing terms or sentences, and disappearing again.
