Primož Gabrijelčič started coding in Pascal on 8-bit micros in the 1980s and he never looked back. In the last 20 years, he was mostly programming high-availability server applications used in the broadcasting industry. A result of this focus was the open sourced parallel programming library for Delphi—OmniThreadLibrary. He's also an avid writer and has written several hundred articles, and he is a frequent speaker at Delphi conferences where he likes to talk about complicated topics, ranging from memory management to creating custom compilers.

Stefan Glienke, since his very first steps with Turbo Pascal in school, was passionate about programming. In his spare time, he worked at a software company using Visual Basic and started learning C++ and Delphi and decided to start an apprenticeship as a software developer after graduation.

Over the years, he developed an interest in software architecture and began helping fellow developers improve their skills, participating in several open source projects, such as Spring4D. He is also the author of TestInsight.

Stefan has worked as reviewer on the books Coding in Delphi and Dependency Injection in Delphi.

Bruce McGee is the founder of Glooscap Software, a software development and consulting company in Toronto, Ontario. He is also a long-time Delphi user, which he continues to work with every day.
