Introduction time

Hi all,

My name is Jan Vidar Krey, I use "Jan Vidar" (if in doubt how to pronounce 
that, use "Jan" or "jv" for short :)
I work for Opera Software in Oslo, and have worked on bringing the Opera 
browser to various embedded platforms for the past two years. These platforms 
and devices range from small mobile phones to gaming devices, such as the 
Nintendo Wii.

I'm a programmer and technologist by heart, formally educated as a software 
engineer, and have been working as a software architect for 5 years now.
I have worked on many different technologies in the past, including scalable 
web solutions, streaming video, information kiosk design, peer to peer 
distribution, NAT traversal, firewalls, etc. - to name a few.
I am new to W3C work however, so please bear with me... :)

Currently, my field is not UI design, but UI frameworks. I see room for 
improvements especially on devices with limited screen estate. These devices 
are rarely scrutinized as much as mainstream devices, and are easy to 
overlook for a variety of reasons. Security information is not as easily 
accessible, and so on.
As mobile internet is on the rise, I hope this working group can focus on 
these issues, and others.

I'm looking forward to work with you all, and hope to see you all in Dublin.

Cheers

-janvidar

Your manuscript is both good and original, but the part that is good is not
original and the part that is original is not good.
