Speaker - Anthony Sorace

Anthony is some sort of engineer. Professionally, his work has focused on system architecture and process analysis, looking at how people can use computers to solve (some of) their problems. On the side, he enjoys messing about with networking, databases, and systems software, largely in the Plan 9 alternate universe. He is a slightly reluctant web programmer but an enthusiastic cook. Unix warped his mind at a young age and he has been using Plan 9 since the late nineteen hundreds, a few weeks before starting a job at Bell Labs working with related technology. He currently serves as a director of the Plan 9 Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to advancing research and education on lightweight distributed systems using these technologies.
