Hi! I'm Sam. And I'm a recovering code-aholic. Actually, the recovery isn't going too well, coding still occupies most of my waking hours. ;-) I have an impressive looking resume, but mostly I like fiddle around with code and see if I can get people to work together. If you are really interested in my background, here's two links: http://www.activestate.com/Corporate/People/Tech_Board.html#sam and http://www.zend.com/zend/hof/sam.php . At a micro level, the way you will see my desire to get people to work together will be my incessant nagging on issues like: why are you still calling the mutableNodeset method! At a macro level, I'd be interested in seeing if we could pull together xml-xindice, xml-axis, xml-security (and perhaps icepick) and build something that addresses the same market niche that Hailstorm and Project Liberty are going after. - Sam Ruby
