He is a permanent member of the Drupal Association as their Systems Coordinator, and is a member of the Drupal.org infrastructure team.

Outside of Drupal, Narayan has been deeply involved in the FreeBSD, Gentoo and Slackware communities. He was a contributing editor and system administrator of a popular Linux community website. As a Google Summer of Code student he developed the KDE front-end to the SUSE System Update server, and became a KDE core committer in 2007.

Brandon Bergren has been a core Drupal contributer since 2006. He actively maintains the location and gmap modules, and formerly maintained the category module. He actively contributes to many other modules, adding features and improving performance as a hobby. Most recently, he rewrote the drupal.org project usage statistical collection and processing system, introducing the no-sql MongoDB database to the drupal.org infrastructure to solve performance problems.

Karoly Negyesi, better known in Drupal circles as ChX, has been a Drupal core contributor since 2004. He contributed more patches to core than anyone else and consequently maintains the most core subsystems -- no less than seven. He was the first leader of the security team and is on the team ever since. After scaling NowPublic.com to a Top 500 site by constructing one of the first Drupal-CDN integrations, he met his first real scalability challenge by architecting SCAN, a predictive newsdesk tool for discovering news events before they become mainstream and then following them using sources like Twitter and CNN. For SCAN, he was using MongoDB, a NoSQL database, before the word NoSQL even existed. He was the senior software architect for the re-launched Examiner.com, one of the largest Drupal sites which also based on MongoDB.

Gerhard Killesreiter has been a core Drupal contributer since 2002.
