Jesse Glick has been working as an engineer on the NetBeans IDE since 1999. He has somehow survived the acquisition of NetBeans Inc. by Sun Microsystems, the move to open source for NetBeans, and its growth into a large integrated tool covering many different technologies and languages. He has worked especially on integration of the Ant build tool, JavaHelp, the NetBeans module system, the project infrastructure, and the plug-in module development support. Throughout the years working on NetBeans, Jesse has helped define substantial new APIs; refactor or deprecate existing APIs; review APIs created by others; and define the versioning behavior of modules to reflect their dependencies.
