Project Summary
An open-source project to develop a robust archiving system with social networking features for hosting fanfiction and other fan works. This software will be used to support the Archive Of Our Own, and we hope also other fan archives.
We welcome contributors, and one of our goals is to mentor new programmers from our fannish communities whom we hope will help maintain and improve the archive in the future, and also go on to work on other fannish projects. If you're interested in working with us, please contact [email protected]!
OTW-Archive and The Archive Of Our Own are projects of the Organization for Transformative Works, a nonprofit organization.
You can see the public roadmap for the design of this project at the OTW website on our project page.
