I accept Magesh's nomination. Thanks to Magesh and Gier for their nomination and +1.
Background I became involved with Apache through Tomcat in late 99, contributing some patches, bug fixes, etc. I had some problems building Tomcat with Ant, so I focussed on fixing it and that began a long journey of contributing to Ant, which is where I still make most of my contributions today. I think the concept of community in Jakarta is important and I have made some great friends as a result, most of whom I have never actually met in person. Outside of Apache, I have developed software professionally for 14 years ranging from hardware design, embedded operating systems written in assembler, telecoms network software, network management, banking systems and most recently J2EE systems for eCommerce. I spell colour with a "u", licence with a "c" unless it is a verb and I like Christmas at the beach. If you want to know more, send me an email. Geir, I'm trying to remove classpath/classloader pain from Ant but no promises :-) Conor -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
