Kiki de Rooij
My name is Kiki de Rooij. I am a 21 year old woman from the Netherlands. I have just finalized my study ICT & Technology. To finish my study I have had an internship at TomTom, which was about improving the reuse of software components within the organisation. As a starting point I have been working on a tool that displays an overview of software components and dependencies of a project. Because of this internship I have learned a lot about software dependencies and I would like to spread this knowledge.

Arne Mertz
I have been learning and using C++ for over a decade in enterprise projects. The abundance of legacy code and technical debt in those long term projects lead to an interest in software craftsmanship besides the use of modern, up to date C++. Since 2015 I write a weekly blog about C++ and Clean Code (no, they do not contradict each other!). Reading and hearing a bit about programming in the embedded world have given me the impression that there might be some differences in how "we" and "they" use C++. That piqued my interest and I joined an embedded C++ project in spring 2017...
