-== Andrew Ross ==
-Hello and welcome to my profile page over here at OSGeo.
-I currently work at Eclipse as Director of Ecosystems. My job is to help companies involved with open source software make money. As a long time OSGeo-ite, naturally I'm constantly on the look out for ways to help advance geospatial technology. One idea I'm working on is investigating the feasibility of a geospatial industry working group at Eclipse.
-My previous job was Director of Engineering at Ingres where I was responsible for the geospatial program.
-I also founded [http://fosslc.org FOSSLC] which is a non-profit organization hosting thousands of great quality videos from open source conferences. If you visit it, you can find videos from , , , and more from other great open source ecosystems like Eclipse, OpenStreetMap, PostgreSQL, FreeBSD/NetBSD/etc and more.
