Anton Epple |
I'm a Consultant & Trainer
living in Munich, Germany. I've been working with NetBeans for many
years and my favorite part is the Rich Client Platform. I blog, write
articles, give presentations and organize meetings in the virtual and
real world to help spread the word about NetBeans. One of my favorite
activities in the last years has been the NetBeans Platform Certified
Training Course, where we're visiting many European universities to
give free trainings to students. I would be honoured to serve as a part
of the NetBeans Governance Board! More about Toni: Website, Blog, Linkedin, Twitter |

Currently I am a Software
Architect with Persistent Systems, and based in
Nagpur, India. My career spans more than 14 years in software
architecture, application development, software and frameworks design,
research,
and training. I have been an active NetBeans community member since 2008. I am a NetBeans Dream Team member and involved in NetCAT and the First_Patch programs. For one year, I was a captain in the "Voice of Community" program. I have applied patches to NetBeans through the NetFIX program and contributed documents to the NetBeans Community Docs initiative. I write a beginner level blog about NetBeans at http://netbeanside61.blogspot.com I am leader of the local NetBeans User Group, NUG Nagpur http://nugnagpur.wikispaces.com and also a JUG Leader http://www.jugnagpur.com for the Nagpur area. Currently I am writing a book named NetBeans Plugin Development - Beginner's Guide through Packt Publishers. If elected to the Governance board, my top priority will be to help strengthen the NetBeans community by continuing programs like First_Patch and by starting more programs oriented towards community; to focus on development of a NetBeans plugin ecosystem developed by community like PlatformX; and ensuring that infrastructure issues are followed up.

15 years experience building complex software systems, more than 12 in
Java, going back to the early Java days. He is a 2009 Duke‘s Choice
Award winner in the category Network Solutions with the ND SatCom
Satellite Communication Management Software (based on NetBeans RCP). Besides his day job, his achievements for the NetBeans IDE, e.g. FindBugs Plugin and SQE, got him elected to be a NetBeans DreamTeam member in 2008. Since 2009 he is also the Community Leader for NetBeans at java.net. Sven is frequent contributor to local and global Java events--speaking, being part of panel discussions or Hands on Labs. "Having served one term on the Governance board I would like to continue the good relationship with Oracle, to intensify cooperation and enhance community participation by further lowering the entry barrier for working with the NetBeans code base. In addition to that I would like to enhance the cooperation and integration with the NetBeans community at java.net to make the community more visible. To make this happen I would like to have a strong community und user perspective on the board. So in addition to my more technical viewpoint someone with a good track record on interaction with users and user groups would be a good counterpart." More about Sven: Blog, Linkedin, Xing, Twitter |
