Engineering Department

The Engineering staff is responsible for maintaining the assets of the USS Dauntless. This includes online assets, like the website and email list, and equipment, like public address systems or projectors.

The positions listed below are sorted into two classifications: 'Standard' and 'Duty Station'.

Duty Stations are positions with a predetermined list of requirements the position-holder has agreed to meet. These are special members who have volunteered to help with the running of the ship, and are prepared to commit to doing a specific job. There is a list of the Duty Stations and their associated responsibilities that can be found here. These members are vital to keeping the ship going, and we encourage everyone to look through the list and see if there is somewhere they feel they can contribute.

Standard positions are those with no specific job description associated with them. These are perfect for members are keen to help out, but don't want to be tied to a specific set of deliverables. These members are just as vital to the ship, as they fill in the blanks between Duty Stations, doing the jobs nobody expected needed to be done. Standard positions are also perfect for those members who don't have the time to contribute too actively, but still want to be part of the Dauntless experience.

This new technology has allowed us to simplify and improve the process substantially.Using a combination of Yahoo! Pipes and Feedburner, we've streamlined our RSS output, but an unfortunate side ...

  • Folder Sharing in Google Docs Google has announced that it is now possible to share entire folders in Google Docs with your friends, or even to make them public.This may prove useful for us aboard the USS Dauntless, as we use Google Docs extensively as a collaborative and publishing platform for our internal documentation.For a detailed overview of the new functionality, see the story at Google Operating System.
