Chris Chandler
Introduction
Chris Chandler, aka Barak, has been a member of the PCGen team since 2001.
I started by working on the output sheets and became the OS SilverBack. During that time I worked with the code and data teams to create the new (now old and familiar) "Weapon Block" that displays all of the various ways you may use a weapon to attack and all the proper attack numbers for doing so, saving an immense amount of space on the output sheets. I also dabbled in dataset creation through this period.
When CMP was incorporated I began working for them on a contractor basis, doing output sheets and data sets. I eventually became their content manager for both the PCGen and eTools portions of their business. During this period my time was at such a premium I stepped down as the OS SilverBack, feeling that I could not contribute enough time to do the position the justice it deserved. Unfortunately WotC declined to renew the CMP license eventually (to clear the path for 4e apparently) so that era ended at the end of 2006.
Since that time I have cerved as CMP Liason to the PCGen Board of Directors and assisted with the design of new functionality for PCGen.
