Domenico Luciani is a software and web developer and compulsive coder. He is curious and is addicted to coffee. He is a computer science student and a passionate pentester and computer-vision fanatic.
Having fallen in love with his job, he lives in Italy; currently, he is working for many companies in his country as a software/web developer. You can find more information on him at http://dlion.it/.
Mihir Mone is a postgraduate from Monash University, Australia. Although he did his post graduation in network computing, these days, he mainly does web and mobile development.
After spending some time fiddling around with routers and switches, he quickly decided to build upon his passion for web development—not design, but development. Building web systems and applications rather than websites with all their fancy Flash animations was something that was very interesting and alluring to him. He even returned to his alma mater to teach web development in order to give back what he had learned.
These days, he works for a small software/engineering house in Melbourne, doing web development and prototyping exciting, new ideas in the data visualization and UX domains.
He is also a big JavaScript fan and has previously reviewed a few books on jQuery and JavaScript. He is a Linux enthusiast and a big proponent of the OSS movement. He believes that software should always be free to actualize its true potential. A true geek at heart, he spends some of his leisure time writing code in the hope that it may be helpful to the masses. You can find more information on him at http://mihirmone.apphb.com.
He is also a motorsport junkie, so you may find him loitering around the race tracks from time to time (especially if Formula 1 is involved).
Takeharu Oshida works at a small start-up, Mobilus (http://mobilus.co.jp/). Mobilus provides a real-time communication platform and SDK called Konnect.
As a JavaScript engineer, he designs APIs, writes code and tests, activates EC2 instances, and deploys code. In other words, he is involved in everything, from frontend to backend.
He is also a member of the Xitrum web framework project (http://xitrum-framework.github.io/). In this project, he is learning the functional programming style of Scala by creating sample applications or translating documents.
Juri Strumpflohner is a passionate developer who loves to code, follow the latest trends on web development, and share his findings with others. He has been working as a coding architect for an e-government company, where he is responsible for coaching developers, innovating, and making sure that the software meets the desired quality.
Juri strongly believes in the fact that automated testing approaches have a positive impact on software quality and, ultimately, also contribute to the developer's own productivity.
When not coding, Juri is either training or teaching Yoseikan Budo, a martial art form in which he currently owns a 2nd Dan black belt. You can follow him on Twitter at @juristr or visit his blog at http://juristr.com to catch up with him.
