Hi :-).

In a past life I was a Java developer, but more of an evangelist.

I was first drawn to Java on account of its productivity advantages as compared with C/C++ and [aspired to] platform independence.

During my time as a developer/evangelist I was most inspired by frameworks such as Cocoon, Struts and other Jakarta projects.

Design patterns and agile methodologies came to the fore during that time and I still try to apply some of the principles in broader contexts.

Subsequently my life turned towards advocacy of free software and libre knowledge both with an emphasis on education.

Hoping to have some fun at the symposium.

Topics I hope come up :-).

Looking forward to whatever transpires.
