Cool!

The more the merrier. If you have suggestions of some areas you would like 
to develop then put them to the list for feedback. Your experience might 
interest you in the BioSQL part of biojava or if you like algorithms the 
DP package could probably use some updating/ testing and or bug fixing.

If you like mundane and thankless work, not unlike banking : ), we 
desperately need a lot more unit tests and documentation.

All the best,

- Mark

Hi all,

I am interested to contribute to the bioJava-project.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Cor Lieftink, I live in the 
Netherlands and work as a system-developer in Oracle & Java at a 
international bank in Amsterdam. Besides working with informatietechnology 

in the area of financial information, I am interested to extend this into 
the area of genetic information. As the best way to do this I see 
contributing to a open source project, like BioJava. Besides that, of 
course I will be studying books in these area, like Bioinformatics from 
David Mount.

My educational background consists of studies in Psychology and Business, 
both at the university of Groningen here in the Netherlands. After 
finishing these studies in 1988 I moved into the field of information 
technology, programming in Pascal and working with webtechnology, as well 
as doing projectmanagement. In 1999 I followed a five month fulltime 
course 
in Oracle technology and worked with Oracle databases and tools 
(Developer/Designer) for the next 5 years. Last year I acquired four Sun 
Java certificates: Programmer 1.4, Web Component Developer, Business 
Component Developer and Architect for J2EE (theory part) , and passed the 
IBM Test 287 Enterprise Application Development with Websphere 
Studio.  July last year I started my job at the bank storing financial 
information in Oracle databases, and retrieve and present it using IBM 
Websphere Application Developer and Application Server, as wel using 
Hibernate, CVS and JUnit.

I hope to hear from you if, and if yes, how I can contribute to the 
bioJava 
project.

Regards,

Cor
