| Trustin is a lead developer for the Apache SEDA framework, and he is |
| working on MINA (Multipurpose Infrastructure for Network Applications) |
| to improve SEDA framework from ground-up. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Trustin was born in 1980. He started programming with built-in BASIC |
| interpreter in MSX mini computer when he was 8 years old. He enjoyed |
| game programming and problem solving using assembly language, C, and |
| C++. Finally, he wins bronze medal at Korea information olympiad in |
| 1998. |

| He worked for several companies as a part time worker who |
| writes high-performance network server applications and a few web |
| applications after he started to major computer science in Yonsei |
| university in South Korea. After graduation, he is working for Arreo |
| Communications, Inc which is one of the biggest SMS (mobile short |

| Trustin was getting bored implementing tedious legacy protocols. He |
| thought he could save himself by creating a generic framework for |
| network applications. The name of the framework was 'Netty' and |
| it has been improved for a couple of years until java.nio package is |
| introduced. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| NIO changed lots of things, and it impacted Netty. New version of |
| Netty was named to Netty2 and released as open source. It gave Trustin |
| the experience of open source community and made him fascinated by it. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Enrique Rodriguez was one of the users of Netty2, and he brought great |
| fortune to Trustin. He metioned Netty2 when he approached Alex |
| Karasulu, who was the lead for the Apache Directory project. Alex was |
| developing SEDA framework as a network application framework at that |
| time. He proposed Trustin to get the power of both together and make |
| the best network application framework available, and the work is in |
| progress actively. |
