He has over fifteen years of enterprise telecom experience for such companies as Nortel, Williams and Telus, and has extensive knowledge of both legacy and VoIP equipment from manufacturers such as Nortel, Cisco, and Avaya. Jim is one of the principal contributors to the Asterisk Documentation Project, and is co-author of the bestselling O'Reilly book, Asterisk: The Future of Telephony.

Russell Bryant is a Senior Principal Software Engineer at Red Hat, where he leads a Cloud Infrastructure team in the CTO Office.

He currently serves as an elected member of the OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors. Russell is also a contributor and committer to the Open vSwitch (OVS) project, where he has helped build OVN, a virtual networking implementation for OVS.
