Silona Bonewald<\/a>, the lady always in a hat (she says that it’s just become an extension of her). Describe her, by her tags: open government, open data, open standards, and databases.<\/p>\n

Silona’s the founder of The League of Technical Voters<\/a>, which allows technical people to be more involved in voting process. As part of this, she created the Transparent Federal Budget<\/a>, with Bill Bradley and Jimmy Wales<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On top of all that, she’s also the open source evangelist for grid.org<\/a>. The focus there is a social network for grid, cluster, and cloud computing folk – a community of communities. Best of all, this was just launched on Tuesday!<\/p>\n

It’s also the home to UniCluster, and they’ve recently struck a deal which Intel to pop UniCluster in BIOSes. UniCluster works with Sun’s Grid Engine<\/a>, as well.<\/p>\n

She’s interested in Drizzle, for the same reason that she likes Drupal. She likes the decorator model, and she thinks its a great way to get the parallel computing solutions fixed.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, all of the stuff she works on currently, is powered by MySQL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
