Interview Transcript Patrick: Hello, and welcome to another addition of the SitePoint Podcast. This is Patrick O’Keefe and before Kevin Dees gets started with the interview that he recorded for this week’s episode, we wanted to take a moment to share a special announcement with you. There’s no way to say this without it being a surprise. There’s no way to say this without it coming completely out of the blue. There’s just no way around that. The announcement is that the SitePoint podcast is coming to an end. We’ve had a really great run, and it’s been a great experience for all of us. But everything must eventually come to an end, and now is that time for this show. We’re sorry to see it end, but we are planning a grand finale two weeks from now, and we want you to be a part of it. One of the greatest things about this show for us has been the listeners, everyone who tunes in, who shares the show, who subscribes, who listens, who leaves comments. This is one of the things that has really made it worthwhile for us and that’s why we want you to be a part of our finale. We’d love to hear your thoughts about the podcast, your memories, your favorite moments. Whatever you want to share, please send it to us via email at podcast@sitepoint.com. We accept both text and audio comments. For audio comments, please record them and then upload them somewhere where we can download them. So for example, your Dropbox account, your web hosting space, something like that, and then send us the link to the file via email. Don’t worry if you don’t have the greatest mic in the world. But if you do have the opportunity to export it in a higher quality audio format, for example, .wav or a high quality Apple format, that’s great as opposed to an mp3. But even if all you have is an mp3, that’s fine as well. More than anything else, we just want to hear your thoughts on the show. Again, send us a link to your audio comment, or send us your text comments at podcast@sitepoint.com, and they might just be included in our final show. The deadline for submissions is December 9th, at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. That’s 8:00 p.m. GMT UTC -5, or 1:00 a.m. on Monday, December 10th, UTC time. Whether you submit a comment or not, we’d like to take a moment to thank you for all of your support over the years. It really has meant a lot to us, and we look forward to sharing more of that with you on our grand finale, which will be released on Friday, December 14th. Announcement out of the way, please enjoy this week’s interview. Over to you, Kevin. Kevin: So today I get to talk with Mr. Dave Rupert. Hello, Dave. Dave: Howdy, howdy.
