Jarosław Staniek

Jarosław Staniek received the MCS degree from the Warsaw University, Poland. Since 1998 he develops multiplatform applications (frontend and backend) using C++ and Trolltech's Qt. His employer in years 2003-2007 was Open Office Polska, a company that offers prepackaged software for customers in Poland with fine localization, addons and commercial support services (actually, mainly OpenOfficePL and Kexi).

In 2003 he initiated contributions for the K Desktop Environment with a goal of boosting its adoption (including commercial) on Unix and non-Unix platforms like MS Windows, thus starting KDElibs for win32 project (formerly Qt-KDE Wrapper), which has been extended to the KDE on Windows project.

As the Kexi Project maintainer and core developer, he is doing designs, redesigns, various implementations and bugfixes, trying to help in making Kexi unique database solution for (almost) everyone.

Jarosław lives in Warsaw with his family. In rare time when he does not sit at a computer, he is fond of biking, travelling and painting.
