He understands that people, tooling, architecture and process all have key roles to play in achieving this.
Andrew has a passion for open source software and its communities. He has been interested in and involved with OSS to a greater or lesser extent since his career began; as a user, contributor, expert group member, or paid advocate.
Finally, Andrew enjoys sharing his experience as much as possible. Not only in his consulting engagements Andrew contributed a chapter to O'Reilly's Software Architecture Metrics and is currently writing a whole book for them entitled "Facilitating Software Architecture".
