Wanted: Drupal Module Developer
For Free/Open Source Citizen Archivist Drupal game module

## Description ##
In collaboration between the University of Edinburgh’s Library Labs and Tiltfactor at Dartmouth College, we are designing a Drupal module that allows users to play a tagging game on an institution’s website. The Metadata Games Module will select game images via the institution’s repository software API (DSpace/Fedora/LUNA software). Data submitted by players will be stored on the Institution website and later exported/downloaded in .csv or .json formats.

The open-source game is designed for altruism-motivated players whose game experience ranges between ‘zero experience’ and ‘some experience in the past, but no recent experience.’ Gameplay is short, ideal for casual gameplay during work/study breaks or something to past time. We are looking for potential developers and early adopters, if you are interested please let us know!
