A
A
How
are
you
doing
just
fine,
mr
fellow
northeast
person?
Yeah
it's
a
beautiful
day
here,
so
I
live
in
vermont,
which
is
in
the
northeast
of
the
us
and
bill
lives
in
maine,
which
is
further
in
the
northeast
of
the
us,
surrounded
by
canada
and
one
side
and
water
on
the
other.
I
guess
and
then
more
canada
and
then
more
than
where
canada
yeah
so
well.
A
That's
only
one
little
thing
about
you.
I
think
we
should
maybe
start
out
with
just
a
fun
question
before
I
really
get
into
the
hard
stuff.
So
I'm
going
to
ask
you
if
you
had
to
choose
between
these
two
super
having
these
two
either
of
these
two
super
powers
which
do
you
think
you
would
choose
being
invisible
or
flying.
B
I
gotta
go
with
flying
and
both
for
a
positive
and
a
negative
reason.
Flying
would,
let
me
get
places,
hopefully
quicker
and
and
easier
and
be
able
to
do
more
and
and
contribute
more
being
invisible
is
kind
of,
like
you
know,
sitting
there
and
sort
of
eavesdropping
on
people
and
and
not
into
trying
to
catch
the
private
conversations
that
that
aren't
mine
and
so
on.
I'd
much
rather
communicate
in
the
open
and
and
and
hear
what
people
have
to
say
and
contribute
that
way.
So
I
definitely
going
to
go
with
flying.
A
So,
in
order
to
be
transparent,
you
do
not
want
to
be
transparent,
that's
probably
a
good
way
to
put
it.
I
like
that
yeah
and
then
I
also
think,
as
as
a
fellow
person
who
speaks
at
a
lot
of
conferences
right
now
that
we
can't
go
to,
it
would
be
nice
to
be
able
to
fly.
They
would
right
without
having
these
fuel,
wouldn't
that
be
cool
yeah.
They
would
so
all
right,
but
now
it's
time
to
get
into
the
net
foundation
board
questions
and
the
first
and
most
obvious
one.
B
B
You
know
really
trying
to
lend
my
voice
from
the
community
and
then,
after
joining
microsoft,
still
really
listening
to
the
community
and
trying
to
amplify
their
voice
inside
in
terms
of
what's
going
on
so
and
I'm
really
excited
about
seeing
the
things
that.net
has
become,
as
it
is
more
open.
You
know
it's
it's
you
know.
One
of
the
things
we
keep
saying
inside
is
the
more
we
try
to
treat
our
customers
and
the
people
outside
of
microsoft.
B
The
same
way
we
treat
people
down
the
hall
or
now
you
know
at
the
other
end
of
a
team's
call
the
same
way.
The
better
the
ecosystem
is
all
the
way
around,
and
we
certainly
don't
do
that.
Yet
we're
still
learning
and
we're
still
growing,
and
I
think,
from
the
perspective
that
I've
had,
I
think,
that's
a
good
way
for
me
to
contribute
and
help
that
journey
along.
A
B
Sure
so
I
was
one
of
the
first
people
on
the
dating
foundation
advisory
council,
which
is
a
small
committee
of
people
that
works
closely
with
the
executive
director
and
the
first
one
I
worked
with
was
martin
woodward
and
then
john
and
now
claire
and
the
the
advisory
council
does
a
few
different
things.
We
are
primarily
people
who
talk
about.
You
know
what.
B
A
B
The
specific
things
we
work
on
is
different.
Members
of
the
advisory
council
help
mentor
people
who
are
project
leaders
who
want
to
bring
a
project
into
the
foundation.
What
does
that
mean
in
terms
of
getting
contributor
license
agreement
in
place
in
terms
of
the
code
of
conduct
and
talking
through
how
we're
going
to
enforce
that
making
sure
we
have
more
than
one
maintainer?
B
B
We
also
try
to
really
do
what
we
can
to
make
the
net
ecosystem
as
inclusive
as
it
can
be
to
and-
and
here
again
I
know
we
have
a
lot
of
work
to
keep
doing,
but
that's
another
one
of
the
things
that
we
keep
trying
to
to
push
on
and
go
here's
what
I'm
hearing
in
the
community!
Here's
what
people
are
telling
me
and
try
to
make
sure
that
we
get
that
back
to
the
board
and
back
to
the
executive
director.
B
B
We
really
only
have
the
three
board
members
that
were
appointed
when
we
drew
up
the
bylaws,
we're
not
really
sure,
and
then
we
kind
of
slowly.
You
know
under
martin
really
got
to
the
point
where
it
was
an
organization
and
we
kind
of
had
some
plans
and
then
you
know
john
did
some
things
there,
where
he
really
helped
push
toward
a
more
membership
driven
model,
and
you
know
that
was
one
of
the
things
that
we
did
really
talking
through.
Why
should
someone
give
money
to
the
foundation?
You
know
kind
of
that
chicken
and
egg
problem?
B
B
A
lot
of
individual
members
who
also
you
know
their
professional
development
is
tied
to
net
in
one
way
or
another,
and
that
gives
us
a
lot
of
voices
to
really
amplify
and
really
make
a
much
stronger
ecosystem.
You
know,
rather
than
being
just
microsoft,
telling
everyone
what
what
happens
now,
we
can
really
keep
kind
of
moving
toward
this
model
where
dot
net
is
much
more
of
a
community.
B
You
know
the
development
still
will
happen
by
the
people
kind
of
paid
on
their
day,
jobs
to
do
a
lot
of
that,
but
a
lot
of
the
direction
of
where
the
platform
is
going
and
how
much
more
we
leverage
third-party
components
or
open
source
components
gets
to
be
a
big
thing.
I
think
one
of
the
areas
specifically
we're
really
looking
at
is:
how
do
we
effectively
incorporate
open
source
libraries
into
the.net
product
releases
right?
So
how
can
something
you
know?
B
We've
we've
done
it
there's
some
things
that
asp.net
uses,
and
hopefully
we
can
do
that
better.
Hopefully,
we
can
do
that
in
a
way
that
really
supports
those
project
maintainers
and
really
gives
them
the
kind
of
voice
that
they
want
in
the
platform
as
well,
and
I
think
those
kinds
of
things
are
a
lot
of
what
we
want
to
do
next
and
then
the
final
one
is,
you
know,
for
historical
reasons.
B
B
So
we
talked
a
lot
about
what
it
did
on
the
advisory
council
my
day.
Job
right
now
is
writing
the
docs
for
c
sharp,
primarily
and
touching
other
areas
in
the
dot-net
ecosystem
as
well,
and
that
puts
me
very
active
in
the
community
contributing
and
listening
to
customers
on
our
github
repos,
specifically
about
c-sharp
or
about
the
docs.
B
B
A
That's
great
thanks
so
much
bill.
Thank
you,
julie,
thanks
for
taking
the
time
to
do
this,
thanks
for
you
know
putting
yourself
out
there
for
the
board
seat,
because
I
also
know
you
know
on
top
of
your
job,
you
know
anybody
who's,
anybody,
who's
gonna,
be
on
the
board.
It's
a
good
time,
commitment
too!
So,
thanks
a
lot,
except
for
considering
it.
