"Leonard Richardson isn't just the author of Constellation Games, one
of the best debut novels I ever read and certainly one of the best books
I read in 2013; he's also an extremely talented free/open source
server-software developer who has been working for the New York Public
Library on a software project that liberates every part of the
electronic book lending system from any kind of proprietary lock-in,
and, in the process, made reading library ebooks one trillion times
better."

Excellent work.

Share and enjoy,
