Simon Maple
Simon is a Technical Evangelist at ZeroTurnaround, but is less about preaching and more about discussion and interaction. His passion is around technical communities and is the founder of the vJUG (new online JUG) as well as an active member of the London Java Community (LJC) organising group and the LJC JCP EC committee. Prior to joining ZeroTurnaround, Simon was a developer and technical evangelist for IBM on the WebSphere Application Server for over 10 years. He enjoys playing and watching football (spherical variety), drinking tea and spending quality time with his family.
