2010 - Marvin Addison - Virginia Tech

Biography

I am a software developer in the Virginia Tech Middleware group that manages authentication and authorization data and services for the University.  Collectively we have a great deal of expertise in LDAP and PKI, and those areas have been themes for projects I've worked on in the past few years.  Outside Middleware I am an active member of the CAS Server and Java CAS Client development teams where I've contributed both features and bug fixes.  I am also the LDAP authentication module maintainer for the CAS server.

Platform Statement

I have been very active in the CAS community in a number of ways in the past year including project governance, source code development, documentation, and support.  I would like to continue my involvement in project governance through another term on the CAS Steering Committee.  I will continue to bring leadership, experience, and energy to the committee where I hope we will continue to improve development processes and documentation.  I would like to make sustainable, high-quality documentation a goal of my next term.
