Nominations for invited speakers for Code4Lib 2012. Alphabetical order.
Renowned historian of science and creator of the television series ''Connections'' and ''The Day the Universe Changed'', James Burke specializes in a view of science that tells a story while tracing the interconnectedness of people, ideas, and discoveries throughout history and culture. Burke foresaw the significance and potential of the coming information revolution [http://youtu.be/0V1hqygO5c4?t=2m13s as early as 1985].
Burke has made his scientific and historical explorations available to the world through the [[http://www.k-web.org/ Knowledge Web Project]], which serves as the online incarnation of his documentary series.
==Daniel Chudnov==
==John Kunze==
John Kunze is a preservation technologist for the California Digital Library. With a background in computer science and mathematics, he wrote software that comes pre-installed on Linux and Apple operating systems. He has also contributed heavily to the standardization of URLs, Dublin Core metadata, and web archiving. John's recent work on "microservices" has brought a pragmatic and often light-hearted/humorous approach to the problems of digital preservation. There is also the off-chance that he might sport his grill while doing a presentation.
==Bethany Nowviskie==
==Kam Woods==
very exciting work on Postdoctoral Research Scientist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Kam is currently developing modified open source digital forensicstools for digital archivists. He works witharchivists, librarians, forensics researchers, and other development groups to identify core needs in analyzingand preparing digital content for preservation -- specifically needs that can be addressed using existinghigh-performance forensic technologies (with a little tweaking). He is also interested in developing datasetsand teaching technologies to support education and professional training in digital archiving.
