I send a huge "thank you" to the Packt team who has made this title

possible, and whose help in getting it out into the world has been

invaluable. Special thanks to Mithun as well as Niko, Harry, and

Siddharth, for their editing work. I'd also like to thank the large and

wonderful Joomla! community and all who participate and power

the open source world and strive to improve the accessibility of the

Web for all. Additional thanks go out to my very patient family who

spent quite a few evenings without me while I worked on this title.

About the Reviewers

Harry is a long time Joomla! community member, and has been knocking around

the IT industry since the days of punched cards and magnetic tapes. He has spent

most of his career as a network systems engineer, fooling around with stuff such as

protocols, routing, low control, and other just as boring networking arcania.

In the real world, Harry has a more-than-passing interest in pickup trucks, country

music, open source software, and genealogy. He, his irst wife, and two terrible

terriers live in Northern Virginia about 20 miles west of Washington, DC.

You can learn more about Harry and what he's currently up to at www.hrpr.com .

You can ind him on Twitter as "harryb_hrpr" and on the Joomla Forum as "HarryB".

in Jyväskylä, in central Finland. He has worked on developing and maintaining web

sites professionally as a freelancer for over three years. Lately, he has also reviewed

Suhreed Sarkar, Packt Publishing ; "Joomla! Accessibility", Joshue O Connor, Packt

Publishing ; and "Joomla! Cash", Brandon Dawson, Tom Canavan, Packt Publishing .

Niko Kotiniemi is currently employed as a web designer at the Guidance and

Counseling Services for Adults—National Coordination Project ( www.opinovi.fi ).

Over the past few years, he has been employed by the Federation of Special Service

and Clerical employees, ERTO ( www.erto.fi )—a labor union whose membership,

among others, includes those who work in the private sector in the IT-service industry.

He continues his lifetime computer hobby by studying a Bachelor's degree in

software and telecommunications engineering at the Jyväskylä University of Applied

Sciences, JAMK. In his spare time, he enjoys the outdoors with his family and

friends, or delving into that next ultimate solution or API that will allow applications

and web sites to interlink and share information.
