<p><b>New page</b></p><div>My name is Ralph Meijer ([xmpp:ralphm@ik.nu ralphm]) and I'm applying for the continuance of my XSF membership.<br />

I've been an active member of the Jabber community since late 2000. I have co-authored a number of XEPs, all around publish-subscribe technologies, and contributed to many others, as well as the XMPP specifications submitted to the IETF. Futhermore I have served on the XMPP Council from 2004 through 2013 and serve on the XSF Board since 2013.<br />
<br />
I currently work for the [http://www.mailgun.com/ Mailgun]-team at [http://www.rackspace.com/ Rackspace]. I irregularly keep a [http://ralphm.net/blog/ personal weblog] and more often write at [https://twitter.com/ralphm].<br />
