Person

Who this is

Founder and CEO of ActiveState in Vancouver, and by Jonathan Hare's account a close friend from the P2P-conference days — connected across the network to David Stutz, Neal Stephenson, and Adeo Ressi, and present at the 2004 PC Forum dinner where the Stephenson meeting happened. The contact-manager artifact survives in the archive in the established medium, note field intact: 'knows David Stutz, Neal Stephenson' (S-119).
