Why would this be an interesting profile? |
---|---|
Charise Arrowood |
Unicon, Inc. Director of the cooperative support program. So, what's it like directing support for JA-SIG's uPortal? What do you see? What recent news from the Cooperative Support program? How about the experience of releasing the Academus functionality as open source software, and building a story around how anyone – Unicon customer or not – can use that free and open source software with uPortal? |
Pascal Aubry |
CAS, ESUP-Portail. PHP CAS Client! Helps showcase CAS, a successful JA-SIG project not yet particularly featured in the newsletter via the community member profile. |
Patrick Berry |
Tell us the story about the tree and the house. Oh, and about your highly successful uPortal and CAS projects as CSU Chico. Helps showcase CAS, a successful JA-SIG project not yet particularly featured in the newsletter via the community member profile. |
John Blakley |
CEO of Unicon, Inc. Who is this enigma? No blog, no profile on unicon.net, yet the mastermind pulling the levers at the founding JA-SIG Commercial Affiliate. Where do you see Unicon going next in a successful relationship with JA-SIG and with JA-SIG software? Rumour has it you've recently rolled out consulting services for CAS – any truth to this? Helps emphasize availability of commercial support and consulting services for JA-SIG community source software. |
Jennifer Bourey |
Drag and drop preferences in uPortal are way cool – how did you get involved and interested in this? Helps JA-SIG position itself as attentive to user experience. |
Susan Bramhall |
long-time JA-SIG community member, prior conference committee chair, highly successful developer of YaleInfo portal, and now drawn into some interesting IdM stuff, and every school's looking at IdM these days, right? |
Richard Klein (Brooklyn College) |
Now that you've been successfully in production with CAS for a while, what are your reflections on the project? What has gone well? What could go better? Where are you going next with your project? |
Adam Rybicki |
Currently doing CAS consulting work, long history with JA-SIG and with uPortal, had a brief but interesting hiatus to work with OpenEAI/OpenII and so has perspective on a non-community-source open source model. |
