My toast has flown from my hand
And my toast has gone to the moon.
But when I saw it on television,
Planting our flag on Halley's comet,
More still did I want to eat it.
Will applied to work with SilverStripe on Search Engine Optimisation because he wanted to work on a project that is both fun and practical. He hopes to improve his understanding of the API's he will be working on, and to get a better sense of how an open source organisation works. He is mentored by Brian Calhoun.
The language he uses when coding for enjoyment is PHP: "To combine a fun language with a cool project is going to make for an awesome summer!"
