  • Adriano Marques - Project Manager and Mentor for the Umit Project Open Source Organization.
    • Quick Bio: Founder of the Umit Project Open Source Organization and dedicated husband and daddy, Adriano still finds time to cook new dishes, solve jigsaw puzzles, watch movies, work as a volunteer and read (or listen to) books while he's not sleeping or working. Adriano graduated from the State University of Goias, in Brazil, where he earned a Bachelor degree, while traveling about 55,900 miles (more than earth's equatorial circumference). In his quest to travel more than Gerard Moss (the first South American to fly around the world), Adriano graduated, got married, and traveled with his wife to live in Brussels and work for Belgacom, where he learned a bit of French and to love that country.
  • Rodolfo Carvalho - Software Engineer and Mentor for the Umit Project Open Source Organization
    • Quick Bio: Passionate Programmer, Husband and Dad, Rodolfo joined the Umit Project in 2007, developing the first version of UmitWeb - the web frontend for Umit Network Scanner. Rodolfo got a Bachelor degree in Information Systems (same class as Adriano's) at the State University of Goias, Brazil. He acts as a consultant for OfficeDrop working on some cool stuff to make the world more and more paperless everyday. He lives in Brazil (and Boston sometimes) with his wife and lovely 2yr old daughter, who loves to take pictures on daddy's iPhone.

[edit] Waiting List

https://gsoc-wiki.osuosl.org/index.php/Attendee_List_2011#Waiting_List If you would like to attend the summit but there are already two mentors from your organization attending, please add your name here. We will confirm with you within two weeks of the summit date whether we will have space for you to attend.

It would be optimal for local mentors to register on the waiting list as well, since it will be easier for them to attend on shorter notice and will ensure less expense for flight costs. Please add your name after the others! This is a waiting list, and the first to come should be the first to be served.

This is a "first come, first serve"-list. It is *not* to be split by projects or the likes, it is to be sorted only by the time when you added yourself. Do not sort it in any different way and only append at the bottom of the list following the template below!
