Laurent Bossavit

I've been working in entertainment software of various kinds for the
last five years, from a game for the Macintosh to multimedia CD
products, variously as a freelance programmer, full-time employee,
and project manager. Currenly a partner and CTO in NetDIVE, a
start-up dedicated to Java software for the business and
entertainment markets. One of my motivations in hooking up with this
list and this team is to "get in on the ground floor" of what I
consider as a key part of our future business strategy - if the
notion of a Java OS is successful, it will mean a lot to the
software industry, possibly mean the end of Microsoft's hegemony.

I'm familiar with Pascal, C, C++ and Java; GUI development, a bit of
client-server - and little bit of many other things. I wrote games,
a morphing program, a Java chat system, worked on an authoring system
for games and multimedia apps called Click'n'Create, among other
things. No particular experience in OS design, but a lot of
experience with OS shortcomings as a regular Windows user. :)

I responded to Markus' call for volunteers to help on the Kaffe port,
as I'm going to tweak the Kaffe code for my own ends anyway in the
near future (I'm working on a native Windows port), but I'm also
interested on anything from the architecture of the OS to the user
interface.
