If you’re a regular reader of this blog or a developer working with Browser ID, no doubt you already know that it’s fundamentally a node.js project built on a Node.js platform. Not surprising then that we’ll be at Node Summit, a 2-day event that begins tomorrow at San Francisco’s Mission Bay Conference Center.
Node.js pioneer Mark Mayo is now a principal engineer in Mozilla’s innovation group, where he works on identity and compute platform projects. Mark will be on a Tuesday afternoon panel called “Large Scale Web,” discussing how Node.js is used by players like Mozilla, Google and Yahoo to keep up with humongous web-scale demand.
Mozilla CTO and Javascript creator Brendan Eich will be on a Wednesday morning panel called “The Evolution of Javascript,” along with Ryan Dahl, who started the Node.js project, and other industry leaders.
BrowserID core team engineer Lloyd Hilaiel will be at Node Summit also, along with some other talented Mozilla technologists.
If you plan to attend, look for us there. If you’d like to learn more about Node.js, it’s not too late to register. If you want to discuss BrowserID implementation or technology, you can always reach us on the dev-identity list or via the #browserid hashtag on Twitter.
