| <p>While I may be new to the Eclipse Foundation, I am no newbie to open source organisations and development. I |
| have been a member of the <a href="https://jcp.org">Java Community Process (JCP)</a> since 2007 and participated |
| in several expert groups during the years. Currently I am the specification lead of JSR 371 - MVC 1.0 and have a |
| seat in the Executive Committe.</p> |
| |
| <p>At Eclipse Foundation, I am currently the PMC Lead of EE4J and expect to be more and more involved as these |
| projects are being set up. I think it is important to have someone with background from the JCP and the JCP |
| Executive Committee to represent all the new committers being introduced to Eclipse Foundation as a result |
| of EE4J.</p> |
| |
| <p>We are all massive consumers of open source technologies in the software industry today, but not necessarily |
| contributing back as much as we should. I believe that open source foundations such as the Eclipse Foundation are |
| essential to get open source contribution on the agenda. I see it as my mission to influence developers on all |
| levels to see that contributing to open source is as natural as consuming it. After all, that is what it means to |
| be a good cicitien in the software industry.</p> |
