A mathematicsgraduate from the University of Nottingham, Neil is just plain keen on programming languagesand likes to explore new ways of solving computing problems. He's written systems to program inBCPL, FP(Functional Programming), Lisp, Prolog, and a structured BASIC. He even wrote a 6502microprocessor emulator to run BBC microcomputer programs on UNIX systemsIn terms of UNIX experience, Neil has used almost every flavor since the late 1970s, including BSDUNIX AT&T System V Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, many others and of course linux. he can claim tohave been using linux since august 1993 when he acquired a floppy disk distribution of SoftLanding(SL S)from Canada, with kernel version 0.99.11. He's used Linux-based computers forhacking C, C++, Icon, Prolog, Tcl, and Java at home and at workAll of Neil's"projects are developed using Linux. He says Linux is much easier because itsupports quite a lot of features from other systems, so that both BSD-and System v-targeted pro-grams will generally compile with little or no changeNeil is currently working as an Enterprise Architect specializing in IT strategy at Celesio AG. Hehas a background in technical consultancy, software development techniques and quality assurance. Neil has also programmed in C and C++ for real-time embedded systemsNeil is married to Christine and has two children Alexandra and adrian. he lives in a convertedscience fiction, squash, mountain biking, and not doing it yourse uzzles by computer,musicbarn in northamptonshire, england. Ilis interests include solvin8Rick Stones started programming at school (more years ago than he cares to remember) on a6502-powered BBC micro, which, with the help of a few spare parts, continued to function for thenext 15 years. He graduated from Nottingham University with a degree in Electronic Engineering,but decided software was more funOver the years he has worked for a variety of companies, from the very small with just a dozenemployees, to the very large, including the It services giant EDS. Along the way he has worked ona range of projects, from real-time communications to accounting systems, to very large help desksystems. He is currently working as an It architect, acting as a technical authority on various majorprojects for a large pan-European companytelecommunications language called SL-1, some FORTRAN, Pascal, Perl, SQL, and smidgeonsof tarya bit of a programming linguist, he has programmed in various assemblers, a rather neat propriePython and C++, as well as C. Under duress he even admits that he was once reasonably proficientin Visual Basic, but tries not to advertise this aberration.Rick lives in a village in Leicestershire, England, with his wife Ann, children Jennifer and andrew,and a cat Outside work his main interests are classical music, especially early religious music, andphotography, and he does his best to find time for some piano practice
