What! Adam Kinney not a MVP?

Someone recently pointed out to me that Adam Kinney isn’t a Microsoft MVP (they noticed I had marked Adam as an MVP in my blog roll).  I had assumed that Adam and Erik Porter where both MVPs (both were crucial to the success of GotDotNet), but only Erik is an MVP.  Hmm, I just I know one of the folks that I’ll be nominating for MVP.  With all of the work he has done with the .Net Users of Fort Wayne and all the stuff he has posted on Avalon in his blog or the newsgroup, I would think he qualifies.  I wonder how many people were like me and just assumed he was an MVP, and therefore didn’t nominate him previously.

I agree as well. Also this Drew Robbins is game for MVP by now with his countless hours aggregating our blogs to make them available to a larger source.

I know!! I can't believe that he isn't an MVP. I wholeheartly agree that he should get that recognition. I remember all his posts in the early days of gotdotnet.com--always helpful and friendly.

And now he's getting a lot of people interested in XAML and Longhorn.

About donxml

I’m an independent consultant, specializing in .Net solutions architecture, based out of New Jersey who also doubles as an evangelist for XML, Domain Driven Design, enterprise architecture and .Net. I do not work for Microsoft, the W3C or any other big company that you may know of (at least not yet). I’ve been an indie for over ten years, and although I’ve been tempted a couple times to take a job with companies like Microsoft, I’ve haven’t found something better than my current situation. I work mostly with the large pharmaceuticals that are based here in New Jersey, and usually find myself on long term contracts. Definitely not the prototypical indie consultant, but it lets me dedicate time to my non-income generating activities like the developer community stuff, plus financing open source projects like XPathmania and MVP-XML. If you would like to talk to me about doing some contract work, just contact me via the contact page. My rates vary widely, depending on lots of different variables, but mostly distance from Jersey, and type of work. Plus, I’ve been known to donate some of my code for various projects.
