Steven Goodwin
For the last 25 years Steven Goodwin (London, England) has been professionally involved in both the community and development environment for Linux, Free Software, and Open Source.

His development portfolio includes games, cloud infrastructure, embedded devices, digital signage, and most areas in between.
As a speaker and commentator he has spoken at many major national, and international, conferences around the world on topics as diverse as WebRTC, HTML5, game development, and quantum superpositions. His position as an industry thought leader includes 60+ articles, 5 books, and work as a start-up consultant, futurist, and mentor.
He is also the author of the retro computing book "20 GOTO 10" which digs deep into old machines and the numbers that bind them together. .
His interests outside of computers, also involve computers!
