Matthew Miller Application 2005

Background
I've been working with and on Jabber since late 2000. Mostly admin help for others running jabberd1.4, then developing solutions atop Jabber for my employers. I started JSO to aid in this development, and still maintain the software today.

I joined the JSF at its inception in 2001. I was first elected to the council 2003. I have authored, co-authored, and contributed to numerous JEPs. I have also been a co-presenter on Jabber at the Denver JUG.

Currently I am employed by Jabber, Inc.; first as a client developer, then as a professional services engineer.

Protocols
Some protocols I've contributed to include:
 * JEP-0050: Ad-hoc Commands
 * JEP-0079: Advanced Message Processing
 * JEP-0095: Stream Inititation
 * JEP-0096: File Transfer
 * JEP-0122: Data Forms Validation
 * JEP-0137: Publishing SI Requests
 * JEP-0141: Data Forms Layout

Council
I'm also a member of the Council, where I've reviewed commented and voted on various other JEPs.

Why?
I'm reapplying to the JSF to continue providing technical assistance to the council, and because Jabber/XMPP already consume a large part of my life.
