Jeremy Jones Jeremy Jones is a software engineer who works for Predictix. His weapon of choice is Python, but he has done some shell, plenty of Perl, a touch of Java, is currently learning C#, and finds functional programming languages (especially OCaml) fascinating.
He is the author of the open source projects Munkware, a multiproducer/multiconsumer, transactional, and persistent queuing mechanism, ediplex, an EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) parsing engine, and podgrabber a podcast downloader. All three projects were written in the Python language.
Jeremy spends his spare time enjoying his family and doing a little writing. He lives in Conyers, Georgia, just east of Atlanta, with his wife, Debra; two children, Zane and Justus; a Lab named Genevieve (how Madelinesque).
