About the Reviewers

Roy Enjoy started to improve his geeky skills with a Commodore 64, some QBasic, and lots of Boulderdash. Then, the Internet exploded after bulletin board systems. Since it is always a shovel man who gets paid first in a gold rush, he decided to thrive within web technologies.

After finishing courses in a couple of IT-oriented schools and playing with a large number of different languages, frameworks, and databases, he worked in different parts of the world, including India, Australia, Turkey, the Netherlands, and Serbia. He is currently living in Australia, and he is trying to learn 3D animation / VFX programming and computer-generated imagery these days.

As an open source evangelist, Roy maintains an API documentation and source code search engine for the Python programming language, named pydoc.net, which is also an open source project.

Philip Hanson is a full-time professional software developer with a diverse background ranging from micro-ISV SaaS to capital-e enterprise development. He continues to experiment with new languages, techniques, and approaches to solve the world's problems.

Aleksandar Mićović started programming at the age of 12. Many years later, he graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in computer science. Today, he's a professional software engineer and consultant in Belgrade, Serbia, with clients spanning across the globe. When he's not working, he enjoys cooking, reading, and traveling. You can contact him at http://aleksandarmicovic.com/.
