“I first met Marc when he joined the community of an open-source project I am involved in. At the time, I was brand new to the open-source world, and having a mentor like Marc around was invaluable to the project. We lovingly call him the "Sensei" for this reason. His kindness and humanity have helped him rally teams of developers from all over the world including places that others may have ignored. I highly respect Marc both as an entrepreneur and as a person and I am grateful that he took the time to foster me as an open-source developer.”
