History
I have been involved with IT since I was a wee lad and code in various different languages, but gravitating more recently towards Java and Javascript.
In my current role I have been involved with the creation and deployment of a chat application for one of our clients based on emite/hablar which got me involved in XMPP as a technology a few years ago. More recently I have also been involved in the Buddycloud project.
Coding
- I am a co-owner of the EmiteGWT projects on github https://github.com/EmiteGWT
- I contribute to the budycloud project https://github.com/buddycloud
- I have also contributed to the openfire server project
Work on the XMPP Protocol
- I am the author of xep-0314 (Security Labels in PubSub) http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0314.html
- Co-organiser of the XMPP UK meetup group. Come to our first meetup - it'll be great! Free pizza and beer :) http://www.meetup.com/XMPP-UK-Meetup/events/92855262/
Why I'm applying
- I really like XMPP as a protocol (I'm a rare anglebracketophile), and can see it becoming an increasingly useful protocol in the future, and really want to be involved in shaping that. I also really enjoyed being with the community and getting involved at the recent summit, and want more of that :)
