I'd do it! I'd say what meara said upthread.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
This was volunteer work. It's totally applicable. And you're still maintaining it.

Year ago an employer who asked me for personal references told me "I don't want to hire anyone who can't find three people willing to lie for them."

ita, Allyson totally needs to be your personal reference. Do it.

Oh, I would do it too--and it's totally as you said. You gathered requirements from a diverse and voluble group of users, did the technical work along with a geographically scattered group of volunteers, produced a highly functional, graphically pleasing, and resilient product on an incredibly tight donation-based budget, and continue to provide user support for years afterward. I see EVERY reason why that is applicable.

Because books.
Were these personal references or specifically work-personal references, ita? Because if it's just personal, Allyson or any number of people would work.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Work-personal, Amy.
I just told the first person here outside of the actual hiring process that I've been offered a position. It was scary. But cool.
meara, dude! You should have been writing my resume this whole time...
Actually, I'm still using a mass Buffista-written cover letter. Power of the internets.

Sure, if you drive to Wenatchee tomorrow while I do it! Road trip!!
