Update the Team page?

[brian-rose]

The Pythia team at https://projectpythia.org/index.html#the-project-pythia-team is a bit out-of-date with recent comings and goings of folks active on the project.

It would be good to get this updated, especially to add new faces.

I don't know if we have a clearly-defined criterion for inclusion on that page, but I would suggest "attends meeting semi-regularly" and/or "has made contributions to Pythia materials".

Bumping this to high priority based on recent discussions. The current page does not reflect the open, dynamic nature of the Pythia community and sends the wrong message about what it means to be a "member of Project Pythia".

An easy first step is to get rid of the existing Team page, and then think about replacing it with a more dynamic page drawn from contributions to our GitHub org -- possibly with an additional manual mechanism for adding people who have made contributions that are not reflected in the GitHub history.

A PR to remove the existing Team page is #346

Bumping this down to Medium priority now that the old Team page is gone.

What's left is to replace the old page with something more representative and inclusive. We don't yet have a good solution for automating the creation of lists of contributors across all repos and activities.

Just making a quick note here to mention that this is still unresolved. It seems to me that we could fairly easily create a dynamic, living "Team" display on our portal site by leveraging the existing ProjectPythia GitHub organization.

One more bump to this old issue!

We now encourage all community members and cookbook contributors to join the ProjectPythia GitHub organization, and in fact required it at the last hackathon for computing credentials.

As part of our transition to a new Pythia website (e.g. projectpythia-mystmd#1) I think we should have a dynamic "Community" page that displays this membership.

We do something similar in our Cookbook template using https://contrib.rocks/
