Speaking Engagements

One of the things that I love most about working in tech is the chances I get to speak in public and share some of the knowledge I’ve somehow managed to accumulate (even, sometimes, about work that I’ve actually done myself!)

For someone who enjoys speaking in public, I find it hard to actually promote the fact that I’ll be in places, but some friends have recently asked when and where I’ll be, so without further ado here are my next confirmed appearances:

What My Leaving Google Means for Selenium

TL;DR: nothing.

Longer version:
One of the questions I’ve received most since announcing that I was leaving Google was “what does this mean for the Selenium project?”

My answer is “not much” The project itself is Open Source, and more than half the commits are coming from developers outside of Google. These developers range from people working at other browser vendors (notably Mozilla and Opera) to people who are just interested in the project and write amazing code. Those people aren’t going away. The OSS project has already demonstrated that if I’m not around things still get done (though the releases slow waaaay down :), but I’ll still be reading every commit and still contributing where I can. Better still, I’m just one person, and the project is vibrant and humming with activity.
