About the Author
Diego Torres Milano has been involved with the Android platform since its
inception, at the end of 2007, when he started exploring and researching the platform
possibilities, mainly in the areas of User Interfaces, Unit and Acceptance Tests, and
Test Driven Development.
This is relected by a number of articles mainly published in his personal blog
( http://dtmilano.blogspot.com ) and his participation as a lecturer in some
conferences and courses like Mobile Dev Camp 2008 in Amsterdam (Netherlands)
and Japan Linux Symposium 2009 (Tokyo), Droidcon London 2009, Skillsmatter
2009 (London, UK), and he has also authored Android training courses delivered to
various companies in Europe.
Previously, he was the founder and developer of several Open Source projects,
mainly CULT Universal Linux Thin Project ( cult-thinclient.sf.net ) and the
very successful PXES Universal Linux Thin Client project (that was later acquired
by 2X Software, www.2x.com ). PXES is a Linux-based Operating System specialized
for thin clients used by hundreds of thousands of thin clients all over the world. This
project has a popularity peak of 35M hits and 400K downloads from SourceForge
in 2005. This project had a dual impact: big companies in Europe decided to use it
because of improved security and eficiency; organizations, institutions, and schools
in some developing countries in South America, Africa, and Asia decided to use
it because of the minimal hardware requirements to have a huge social impact
providing computers, sometimes recycled ones, to everyone.
Among the other Open Source projects that he has founded we can mention
Autoglade, Gnome-tla, JGlade, and he has been contributing to various Linux
distributions such as RedHat, Fedora, and Ubuntu.
He also has been giving presentations in Linux World, LinuxTag, GUADEC ES,
University of Buenos Aires, and so on.
He has been developing software, participating in Open Source projects, and
advising companies worldwide for more than 15 years.
