Adam Bien is one of FishCAT members who helped testing GlassFish v3 Prelude.  We saw many Bugs/RFEs filed by him, now let's get to meet him, following is his bio from the Artical he sent me.  I also asked him to give us some input on FishCAT,  here is what he wrote, it made me laugh and hope will make you laugh too.  Adam got 155 CAT Points, become our  #1 FishCAT in the program.  Congratulations Adam and thank you so much for helping us testing GlassFish v3 Prelude,  and thank you for sharing your J2EE  knowledge with us !

GlassFish Quality Community (GFQC): What things you like v3 Prelude, and what you like to see improvement

Bien: I really appreciate the embedded capabilities and the availability of EJB 3.1 support - this is important for my projects. The monitoring capabilities look promising as well.

GFQC: What things you like FishCAT, and what you like to see improvement

Bien: I really appreciated the instant, amazingly short feedback cycle and the short line to the engineers. It was a pleasure for me to participate. I would suggest for FishCAT v2 to improve the logo.  There is a huge room for improvement. The name is not that exciting as well. GlassCAT or even StealthCAT sounds more interesting :-) . Everything else worked perfectly for me.

GFQC: Would you recommend FishCAT to your friends and ask them to join us :-)

Bien:  Absolutely! Not only friends, but family as well ;-)
