Re: Poll on teleconferences

Hi everyone,

My turn to get into the intro loop! I'm Dominique Guinard, I'm the CTO 
and co-founder of EVRYTHNG (https://evrythng.com/) a platform providing 
digital identities and Web APIs for millions of real-world things since 
2011.

Before that, together with Vlad Trifa, I co-founded the 
http://webofthings.org initiative and workshop series in 2007 
(http://webofthings.org/events/wot/) with the aim of promoting the use 
of Web technologies to build the application layer of the IoT. This was 
also the topic of my research 
(https://scholar.google.ch/citations?user=rVnhmMIAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao) 
while at Lancaster University, ETH and MIT, leading to my PhD on a Web 
of Things application architecture 
(http://webofthings.org/2011/12/01/phd-web-of-things-app-archi/).

Having promoted the essence of what this group is about for a while now 
we are thrilled by the perspective of centralising the efforts and of 
course very interested in taking an active part in it!

Dom
