Piotr Szotkowski
Piotr Szotkowski (github, twitter) is an assistant professor at Warsaw University of Technology (where he happily sneaks Ruby, EventMachine and newfangled database systems into the creaking world of twentieth-century academia), a Ruby developer at Rebased and an alumnus of Mendicant University.
He’s also a long-time contributor to various open source projects for the civic sector and co-organiser of NetWtorek - monthly NetTuesday meetings of people from the NGO/non-profit and IT sectors, as well as SocHack- quarterly 48-hour hackatons for worthy causes, in coordination with Random Hacks of Kindness, Open Data Day and Open Education Week .
If you were at RuPy 2011 then you already know that Piotr Sarnacki (aka @drogus at twitter, github) is going to be a speaker at our conference. He is mainly known for his tremendous contribution to Rails Engines. He’s currently working on http://stoliczku.pl/ which is a Rails 3.1 application that allows you to book a table in various restaurants. It uses sproutcore under the hood to run rich client that helps managers control their restaurant business.
