About
I’m David Illsley, I work in Web Services development at IBM Hursley, which involves work on the Apache WS Project, where I am a committer and PMC member. When not working with technology, I spend a lot of time on the backstage aspects of theatre, and a sadly decreasing amount of time reading.

Looks cool & very Harry-Potter-like. I think hats like this will be next year’s must have fashion accessory! What did yours look like?
Sadly I didn’t have anything stylish enough so went without.
now, what was that you said about it not really being about hats?…
hope the show’s going well, btw, are you still getting wet?!
