1 Vincent Massol

I'm Technical Director of [XWiki SAS>http://www.xwiki.com], a company developing [XWiki>http://www.xwiki.org], an open source [second generation wiki>http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SecondGenerationWiki]. My full bio is available on [linkedin>http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmassol].

I'm really interested in anything that can make computer development a better "science", i.e. that helps the software engineering discipline. As a consequence, I've been researching and participating in the following areas over the past few years:

11

* Development methodologies and especially applying agile methodologies in the field.

12

* Tools / frameworks, especially in the domain of Builds, Tests and generally quality control.

13

* Making collaboration easy even from a distance.

I've created the [OSSGTP>http://ossgtp.myxwiki.org/] in 2004 (and still alive and kicking today!) which is a group of French open sourcers, gathering to speak about technology and open source. The [list of projects we cover is quite varied>http://ossgtp.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/OSSGTP/Projects].

1.1 Podcast

I'm participating to a monthly Podcast called [Les Cast Codeurs>http://lescastcodeurs.com/] talking about Java News (in French), along with Emmanuel Bernard (JBoss, Hibernate), Guillaume Laforge (VMWare, Groovy) and Antonio Goncalves (freelance, book author).
