| People Behind KDE: Jos Poortvliet |
 Posted by Danny Allen on Friday 27/Jul/2007, @14:43
from the reporting-our-progress dept.
For the next interview in the People Behind KDE series, we travel to the Netherlands to meet a KDE promoter and meeting organiser, someone who helps the international community to experience KDE events, even if they were not in attendance - tonight's star of People Behind KDE is Jos Poortvliet.

About Jos...

Apart from conducting this interview, i've met Jos in person - we spent a lot of time in Glasgow working on Akademy articles, and Jos very committed, enthusiastic and professional in his work. It was a real pleasure to meet him!

you're one hell of a writer yourself, Danny ;-)
I said to him (and others must have said that before as well, I'm sure) he should fill in the questions himself, and get it online - after all, dear Danny might very well be the brightest star on the promotional sky at KDE :D
So, everybody who's with me on this, help me persuade him!

na, the time has come to start looking for a job, and I'd rather have a potential googling employer not to find references to weed and such all over the web ;-)
Of course, nothing can be done about that (the web doesn't forget), but in time, the connection will loosen a little and they might consider it co-incidental or outdated...
Yes, it sucks. I've also cut my hair, I look very corporate now :(

My embarrassing moment is that when I see you in real life I know you only as "superstoned." So I support 100% people having nicks related to their real name, makes life for folks like me, who can't remember names very well, twice as easy.

I know what you are talking about... Not all companies are like that - that being said, you still don't want to reduce the set of possible employers unnecessarily. Of course.

Maybe you should remove the magic mushrooms background and rename wietbak also?

Background? On the picture? I was in a zoo ;-)
And yeah, wietbak might have to change as well ;-)
