It's been desperately long since I've done this. But, frankly, it was a busy quarter
and it's been tough coming up with questions. But Spring is in the air, and the
creative juices are flowing, so welcome to ...
** THE STRUTS SURVIVOR WHO-WE-ARE QUIZ **
In honor our moving (slowly) to a top-level Apache project, let's do a survivor-style
quiz about the active Struts Committers. The questions are obscure, so you do NOT need
to answer all of them to win :)

To play, submit answers to THREE or more of the questions. Everyone submitting a
correct response to < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > will be entered in the drawing for an
autographed copy of Struts in Action or JUnit in Action (just by Ted I'm afraid). [Hey
- if anyone else has autographed books to donate, let me know, and you can have in on
the fun too! -- I'm not jealous :)]
REMEMBER! Submit your answers to < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > and I'll summarize for the
group :)

Hey, what about last time?
Good point. Senior moment :)
Last time, we asked (1) One of the original creators of JUnit now works on a popular
open source IDE (with some excellent Struts addins!). Name this computer scientist.
-OR- (2) A SF author, best know for his "edgy" short stories, wrote one of the first
Star Treck episodes dealing with time travel. Later, he served as the creative
consultant for another popular TV series, in which time travel plays a pivotal role.
Name this SF author and his single Star Trek episode.
(1) would be Erich Gamma of GoF, JUnit, and Eclipse fame, and (2) would be Harlan
Ellison, City at the Edge of Forever.
We had several correct (and incorrect) responses, from which we selected the lucky
winner:
JOE HERTZ
(Joe, please send your surface mail address to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and indicate whether
you would like JUnit in Action or Struts in Action)
-Ted.
