Keith Fahlgren
About: I'm the Publishing Technology Engineer at O'Reilly Media. I'm responsible for building the systems that get our content into and out of all its various formats as well as R&D work into new authoring, typesetting, and publishing systems.
In another life, I was a part of a misguided attempt to build a web application for musicians in Scheme as a YCombinator step-child.
