Mark (the owner of MarkOv Solutions) actively contributes to the Open Source communities, in various ways:

• Developing and maintaining many large Perl modules;
• Developing new innovative technologies, recently Open Console, Meshy Space, and standardization efforts for Take-Down requests;
• Mark also speaks on many events, like Perl workshops and FOSDEM; and
• Mark is active in various boards and as event organizer.

All this projects are in the "Open" vision to life: embrace everyone to create better products together. No vendor lock-ins: let the best product win.

A "minor" issue with this approach to life, is that it's not a strong financial business model. Many "Open" developers are employed by a company which benefits, and some of my work was also created that way. But the results have a longer life than the projects: long term maintenance is usually not covered.

So, please: when you like my work or want to support my ideas, then please help me realizing them:

You may buy me a coffee; Become my Patreon; Become a substantial donor, like the NLnet Foundation which contributes a few times to my efforts with large donations; Invite me as a speaker (expenses paid); or Simply buy me a beer during an event
Or, with an invoice from my company: Let me implement your extension which uses one of my modules; Let me develop your new Perl library; Let me review your Perl code or system; Let me design your XML schema's; or Let me participate in your new project. (most of my invoices are international: I know how to do that).
