We have worked with Bill on many online projects relating to embedded linux and open source. He is an expert and a great speaker/moderator

Bill is one of the best thinkers around the general open source landscape I know. I've worked closely with Bill in a number of contexts, most recently in the Linux Phone Standards Forum, and in the development of an internal "Open Source Best Practices" seminar for ACCESS. The results have, as always, been excellent, but that's what I expect of Bill.

David Schlesinger
Director, Open Source Technologies , ACCESS Company, Ltd.



Bill excels at analyzing technology trends, assessing opportunities, collaborating on standards, and effectively communicating in both written and verbal media. He is comfortable in discussing technology at both the management and technical levels in either 1 on 1 situations are in front of a large audience.

Bill is quite simply one of the smartest people that I or probably you will ever meet. His years embedded in the embedded space have earned him worldwide recognition as one of the key people shaping how a wide arrary of products are developed. Bill is equally at ease delievering a keynote or managing a website.

Bill is one of those rare insightful individuals that can almost intuitively read the markets he is in, provide his audience with a concise and clear vision of the road ahead, and to do so in a manner that foments credibility and trust with the customer base he services.

Joseph F. Callaghan
Regional Sales Manager, DDC-I



Bill's ability to support the field with strong value-centered marketing materials, excellent articles in the industry press, and his direct and informative style was, and is, an exceptional combination. He is both professional and knowledgeable. Bill's direct non-aggressive style is extremely well accepted by customers, and they (and I) enjoy his command of his company, the industry, the market, the products and his grasp of the long term trends being pursued.

With core competency in embedded computing, Bill is a sharp and articulate communicator of the open source collaborative development model. When he was at MontaVista, I witnessed Bill carefully unravel and explain the implications of using openly licensed code in commercial applications via software subscriptions

Kevin Tobin

Bill is by far a leader, teacher and friend. Knowing Bill for the last 10 years has made my life richer in a number of ways. Bill is respected not only in the Silicon Valley but worldwide. His talants and skills rank him as a man that has the vision to see technology years into the future. If anything Bill's profile is understated and anyone that comes in contact with Bill either on a professional or personal level will not be disappointed. Bill has my highest recommendation.

Bill is truly one of the industry's great evangelists and marketeers. He has that special talent of taking a very complex subject and putting it into the context of the big picture. I continue to consult with Bill to get his read on industry trends.
