Author

Jason McVetta is an independent consultant, teacher, and Free Software activist based in beautiful-but-too-cold San Francisco. He studied government and philosophy in college, but was unwilling to sell his soul to the Demopublicratican Party, so he went to work in software. After 12 years as a professional Pythonist he met his new love, Go. He is able to fly without mechanical assistance.

This is a Free book, but you are more than welcome to pay me for it! You are under no obligation, legal or moral, to do so. But I can always use a couple bucks for coffee. =)
