Tuomas Koski Application 2010

My name is Tuomas Koski and I'm re-applying for XSF membership. My contact information: [xmpp:tuomas@xmpp.lobstermonster.org tuomas@xmpp.lobstermonster.org] [mailto:koski.tuomas@gmail.com koski.tuomas@gmail.com]

About me and my relevant professional experience
I am 30 years old Finnish dude living in Paris, France. I have been working in messaging and eventing systems for the last 10 years. Currently I'm working in the energy distribution business but hopefully soon working in full time as an entrepreneur.

During the last 4 years I have been using XMPP heavily. I have created many PubSub based services as well as multiple different XMPP components.

Currently I'm very interested in Domain Event Driven Architecture and how it can be efficiently deployed using XMPP.

I'm also very involved to "social web" through Federated Social Web -project and budducloud.

Plans as a member and why I'm re-applying

 * on road to release an opensource PubSub component done with Java
 * blogging about building a Domain Event Driven Architecture using XMPP
 * keep on participating in discussions on relevant XMPP mailing lists
 * keep on fulfilling my "voting duties"
 * keep on being an active member on the "tech review team"
 * continuing on spreading the knowledge of XMPP in the universities, conferences, projects and to my colleges

I am re-applying because I like the open and positive nature of the community and it's full of intelligent people. Thanks to all of you I learn a lot every month.
