Juan is an enthusiastic young blood in gnome community, he's been
contributing to glade for a solid year now and notably has helped
polish off i18n'ness of the overall product, wrote a GtkMenu specific
editor and integrated alot of fringe widgets (including the gnomeui
specific catalog)...

I should also note that it is thanks to Juan's convincing "sales pitch"
that recently an employee of palmsource (the makers of palmOS platform)
has taken an interest in the project... this has led them to choose
glade as thier tool-of-choice and to assign us one of thier developers
as well :)

Cheers,
                           -Tristan
