Juliette is an all round web-consultant and developer. Having started with client-side web development in 2000, she furtively tried to avoid server-side web until she was forced to learn PHP at knife-point in 2002 and found herself hooked quite quickly. As she herself would put it 'It is more fun than Sudoku, and just as challenging to get it right'. She has actively contributed to a number of open source projects and published several articles and php-classes.

I have been working with software since the early 80s. Initially using 8 bit processors before moving on to the 32 bit ARM processor at the end of the 80s. During this time I also used UNIX and VMS. I first used Linux in about 1995 which was when I returned to University to study for a Masters specialising in Machine Vision. I subsquently put together the first ARM Linux distribution. I have worked in embedded software, application software, client/server and comms. I have been active in the FOSS community off and on since then.
