He's working out of Japan for ~8 years now, and in that time has started an interesting side project that you might be interested in.

RL067 Bryce Osterhaus on Frontend Development
June 23, 2020 14:02 - 30 minutes - 14.1 MBFor this episode of Radio Liferay, I've talked with Bryce Osterhaus, Frontend Developer at Liferay for ~ 6 years. With his experience, he's a perfect complement to me: While he feels at home in the browser, client side, I'm comfortable on the backend, away from all of the messy frontend stuff - prepare for some naïve questions coming his way. We spoke about a design decision that has been made in some internal projects: His team has built a UI that does not utilize Liferay's page/site infra...
RL066 Ryan Schuhler on creating liferay.com
June 13, 2020 18:00 - 39 minutes - 18.1 MBA while ago I sat down with Ryan Schuhler. He's Associate Program Manager at Liferay, which is a fancy name for Webteam Lead, and we talked about "dogfooding" Liferay DXP to build liferay.com - which features are used, how the site evolved and what is fed back into the product.

RL065 Zsolt Balogh - Happy Birthray
May 11, 2020 14:30 - 29 minutes - 13.5 MBOops - in times of fast news like this, I sat on the recording for a while. Unacceptable, but as almost nobody is commuting in April/May 2020, it's questionable if you'd have put it on during your commute anyway... Happy 10th Birthray to Zsolt and me and several others (listen to the episode if you want to know what that means) This is a quite non-technical episode, just two people remembering the "good old times": Don't expect to learn anything new about the product(s) - instead you'll hea...
RL064 - David Nebinger - Horror Stories
January 30, 2020 15:30 - 21 minutes - 9.9 MBAn episode that was recorded together with episode 62, but got a bit lost (well, I admit - it was just sitting on my disk). But here we are: David shares four of his favorite horror stories - those that tought him what he never wants to see again. Hopefully it's useful so that you learn from it before experiencing those stories yourself.
RL063 Andrew Jardine - Mastering Liferay
January 24, 2020 09:00 - 28 minutes - 26.3 MBFor this episode I spoke with Andrew Jardine, Community Contributor Award winner for 7 years in a row about his history with Liferay, the community, how to improve it and, of course, his new passion project, https://masteringliferay.com/ We've recorded this episode during Devcon 2019, but I've been keeping it back for a bit, to give Andrew a bit more time to produce more content for the site that we mainly talk about. Check it out - prepare to be amazed. (More notes and links available in HT...
RL062 David Nebinger
November 14, 2019 09:00 - 45 minutes - 21.1 MBA conversation with David Nebinger, the number one contributor on the Liferay forums, about frequently asked questions.
RL061 Caris Chan
February 26, 2019 12:30 - 27 minutes - 22.3 MBIt took me long enough to bring her on: She's followed Liferay's history for longer than some of the other founders: Caris Chan. And yes, that name means that she's Brian Chan's wife. During my last visit in Liferay HQ, I took the opportunity and asked her about her view on Liferay's history - about 15 years for the company and 20 years for the software project.

RL060 Performance and Permissions with Preston Crary
March 20, 2018 08:00 - 32 minutes - 30.3 MBAn episode on the "Per" things: Performance and Permissions. I spoke to Preston Crary, who amazingly was not mad at me for losing an earlier recording. (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)
RL059 Testing at Liferay with Kristoffer Onias and Victor Ware
October 03, 2017 08:00 - 1 hour - 66.7 MBYay, another episode, and maybe in time to sweeten your trip to Devcon in Amsterdam. I spoke to Kristoffer Onias and Victor Ware. Both work on testing Liferay with different areas of interest. You'll hear quite a bit about what Liferay does internally on testing. I actually talked to them quite a while ago, and the episode has been sitting on my disk since then.The numbers that you hear may no longer be accurate, but the overall information definitely is. Sorry for keeping it a secret for s...
RL058 Jorge Ferrer (continued)
September 20, 2016 08:00 - 53 minutes - 24.8 MBTwo episodes (or an eternity) ago, I spoke to Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering. We didn't have enough time to finish the conversation, so we continued a while after - and then I buried the recording /o\. Anyway, apart from it being still from "before the release of the current version", it's still relevant stuff, I feel bad about missing to post it. Check for yourself - here it finally is. (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked ...
RL057 Documentation with Jim Hinkey and Cody Hoag
May 18, 2016 16:00 - 52 minutes - 24.1 MBToday I'm welcoming a repeat guest and a new one: Jim Hinkey (of episode 21 fame) and Cody Hoag - both from Liferay's documentation and knowledge management team. This episode has unfortunately suffered from various disturbances in the space-time-continuum: I had it sitting on my disk for quite a while. The Javadoc Contest that we've "started" in this episode was actually published/announced in the meantime and unfortunately ended recently. Congratulations to Sébastien and Marcellus. However...
RL056 Jorge Ferrer
March 14, 2016 15:00 - 45 minutes - 20.9 MBToday I'm welcoming a repeat guest, Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering. I've had the great opportunity to ask him a lot of questions that provide deep insight into what's running behind the scenes in the engineering team. We didn't have enough time, so this is part 1 of our conversation, to be continued in episode 58. I need to squeeze in the (already recorded) episode that contains more information about the Javadoc Contest (please participate). (More notes and links available in H...
RL055 James Falkner on Change
February 15, 2016 23:30 - 31 minutes - 14.5 MBIn this episode I'm talking probably one last time to James Falkner about upcoming changes... James was the first guest on Radio Liferay (back in episode 1 - as well as others) and now - at least temporarily until episode 66 is published - will be the last. We're talking about upcoming changes, and sadly it looks like this will be his last appearance on this program.

RL054 Scott Nicklous and Neil Griffin on JSR 362 - Portlet 3.0
January 26, 2016 14:37 - 24 minutes - 11.5 MBIn this episode, recorded at Liferay's Devcon 2015 in Darmstadt/Germany, I'm talking to Scott Nicklous and Neil Griffin.

November 30, 2015 10:40 - 27 minutes - 12.6 MBI met repeat guest Nate Cavanaugh, Liferay's Director of UI Engineering, at this year's Devcon and he answered all UI-based questions that we could quickly think about - specifically with regards to Liferay 7 (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)
RL052 Raymond Augé - Upgrading your 6.x plugins to 7.0
November 23, 2015 09:00 - 51 minutes - 23.8 MBModularization / Liferay 7 part 2/2. Again with Ray Auge, with Milen Dyankov as Cohost.

RL051 Raymond Augé - Motivation for Modularization
November 16, 2015 10:00 - 25 minutes - 11.8 MBAnother Devcon "private" session - I missed his presentations, but got the summary right when he was done: Ray Augé took the time to answer all sorts of questions about the Modularization in Liferay 7. In fact, he answered so many questions that we made it a 2-episode recording. This week it's about the motivation for modularization: What problem does it solve? Next week will be more technical, telling you about the implications of the updated architecture to your code.
RL050 Pimp My Scriptengine with Jens Bruhn
November 09, 2015 09:00 - 35 minutes - 16.2 MBWow, 50 episodes already. At this year's Devcon I spoke with Jens Bruhn. He's Software Architect at Prodyna AG, a Liferay Partner and the author of Nabucco Script Center, a Liferay App available on the Marketplace. He also convened the "Pimp my Scripting Engine" workshop at Liferay's Devcon 2015, which I missed. But this only provided a perfect reason and excuse to speak to him. As we recorded this on site at Devcon, you'll hear more background noise than usual - As usual, Auphonic did thei...
RL049 Security with Tomáš Polešovský
November 03, 2015 12:00 - 27 minutes - 12.7 MBIt's been a long time and finally... Radio Liferay is back with several episodes in the queue. Today, Tomáš Polešovský starts of by talking about Liferay's security team and -procedures as well as his work within that team. Tom has already been a guest on Radio Liferay's ancient episode 9 (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)
RL048 James Falkner on Releaseplans
January 20, 2015 09:00 - 12 minutes - 5.86 MBA short Inbetweenisode on the release of 6.2 CE GA3 with repeat guest and Community Manager James Falkner. During Devcon James promised (http://youtu.be/U46tCHFeutM?t=34m27s) the release for the 15. January - while I stated that this release date was wishful thinking. Now we actually hit the promised release date for the first time known to both of us. Enough reason to get together and talk about the underlying cause and intents. (More notes and links available in HTML version of this parag...
RL047 Chema Balsas and Emil Öberg on Themes and Frontend Development
January 19, 2015 09:00 - 22 minutes - 10.7 MBAnother Devcon conversation - make sure not to miss it next year. I grabbed Chema Balsas, Software Engineer at Liferay Spain, and Emil Öberg, Consultant at Monator Technologies, a Liferay Partner Company in Sweden. This is a three-way conversation with Chema Balsas and Emil Öberg that we had during Liferay's Devcon 2014. Chema had a Theme-Workshop (sorry, no recording) and Emil a presentation on Rapid Frontend Development, so it made sense to talk to both of them as their experience overlaps...
RL046 Thomas Schweiger on Coffee
December 18, 2014 19:00 - 9 minutes - 4.63 MBThe nerdiest topic so far: I'm speaking to Thomas Schweiger, german national barista champion 2010-2012. He was sponsored by our german partner Prodyna to prepare coffee during this years Devcon and Portal Solutions Forum Germany.
RL045 Bryan Ho on Design and Ray
December 15, 2014 22:50 - 7 minutes - 3.76 MBI had a short meeting with Bryan Ho, Lead Graphic Designer at Liferay - With that role it's obvious that we're bridging the audio/visual gap again: A very visual topic in an audio only podcast. But if you're not driving while you listen to this podcast, you can click the links from the shownotes and browse through the archives. Apart from being the creator of the Radio Liferay Logo, Bryan is the creator of "Ray's intergalactiv adventures". You can check out this series at https://www.lifera...
RL044 Stian Sigvartsen on Social Apps Proxy
December 11, 2014 22:00 - 14 minutes - 6.58 MBThis is my conversation with Stian Sigvartsen, winner of the Marketplace App contest with his Social Apps Proxy (Link) and well known member of the UK Liferay usergroup, working in Devon and quite a lot with Liferay. Our paths cross quite often, but we finally found some time to talk about Stian's award winning app which basically takes all the boring stuff out of OAuth integrations into Liferay
RL043 Brett Swaim on Application Performance Management
December 05, 2014 16:00 - 14 minutes - 6.88 MBI'm talking with Brett Swaim, Principal Consultant at Liferay US, on application performance monitoring, horror stories and things to avoid. Brett is dealing with a lot of customers. He's one of Liferay's go-to resources for performance tuning and monitoring. Brett had a presentation on DevOps Best Practices with Liferay, Logstash, Kibana, Elasticsearch, and New Relic at Devcon (among other symposiums and events). If you missed it or just want the audio summary (both were my motivations to ...
RL042 Zsigmond Rab on Enterprise Support
December 04, 2014 16:30 - 11 minutes - 5.38 MBAt Devcon, I took the opportunity to meet several people - stay tuned for several more episodes during the rest of this year. For this episode, I spoke with Zsigmond Rab. Zsigmond is Lead Engineer, Technical Support & Trainer at Liferay Hungary. This is a short and informal tongue-in-cheek talk about support-related issues. (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)
RL041 Máté Thurzó - 37000ft overview of staging
November 17, 2014 16:00 - 28 minutes - 12.9 MBAnother first: This week's guest Máté Thurzó presents a brief 37000ft overview over Staging. Yes, this is literally 37000ft - we both were lucky to be invited to the North America Symposium 2014 and had the same flight back. Yes, this episode has been recorded 11277m over the atlantic ocean on the flight from Boston to Frankfurt, and it's also a first time that you see me use imperial units voluntarily.

RL040 James Falkner: Hack our Events
August 20, 2014 06:30 - 30 minutes - 14.2 MBRadio Liferay is back with a repeat guest, James Falkner, Liferay's Community Manager.

RL039 Juan Fernandez and Ivica Čardić on Liferay Cloud Services
August 14, 2014 12:00 - 35 minutes - 16.3 MB\o/ Radio Liferay is back. A while ago I talked with Juan Fernandez and Ivica Čardić about an exciting project they're collaborating on: Liferay Cloud Services. "What's this?" you ask? Well, good that you're asking, because here's the explanation. It's all about helping you monitor the health of your Liferay Installation, keeping an eye on the installed fixpacks (if you're using EE) or showing you some monitoring information that the server provides and you'd otherwise risk not to see. (The...
RL038 Alberto Chaparro on updating Portlets to version 6.2
February 05, 2014 21:10 - 11 minutes - 5.17 MBI talked with Alberto Chaparro. Alberto works for Liferay as a support engineer on the spanish team. This conversation follows up on something that Iliyan mentioned in episode 37: The migration tool that will help you upgrade your portlet from 6.1 to 6.2. We're talking during the end of the symposium, so the background noise that you hear are people that are starting to break down the staff room. (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked ...
RL037 Iliyan Peychev on Frontend and AlloyUI
January 09, 2014 21:45 - 37 minutes - 17.4 MBI talked with Iliyan Peychev, Software Developer from Madrid. We met during Liferay's spanish symposium (so it's about time to publish the episode - sorry for the delay). We're back on Liferay's frontend, so I'm getting my scoop on how to approach Javascript work, new tools, new infrastructure. Also - as you'll discover - I got a glimpse of developer-paradise (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)
RL036 Daniel Sanz on Liferay Translations

The topics we covered were all around Developer Tooling. There's a bit of background noise as we were recording this session in the break area of the conference. We had to limit ourselves to the time when some sessions were on, in order to find the quietest possible envir...
RL034 Miguel Pastor and Ray Auge on Modularization on OSGI
October 28, 2013 19:00 - 31 minutes - 14.6 MBAt Devcon 2013 I met with Miguel Pastor and Ray Auge, both Engineers and Core Developers at Liferay. They both have been involved in the latest modularization efforts, resulting in OSGi being now on the Feature List for Liferay 6.2. We recorded this session in the break area of the conference, during one of the sessions in order to find some quiet time. Unfortunately, as you'll hear in this recording, we picked the time when Lunch was prepared, so the catering staff is setting up stacks of ...
RL033 Jari Järvelä, Janne Hietala on Valamis
September 24, 2013 15:00 - 53 minutes - 24.4 MBAbout a month ago I had the opportunity to talk to Jari Järvelä and Janne Hietala from Arcusys. They both head Valamis, an E-Learning solution on Liferay that later (end-of-August) won the Liferay App Contest. Unfortunately, a lot of work as well as my summer vacation kept me from releasing this podcast earlier (well, for me it was not quite unfortunate that I had a vacation) (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and in the blogpost linked to the episode)

RL030 Juan Gonzalez on Preview, JSF, xmlportletfactory and other topics
July 15, 2013 19:45 - 22 minutes - 10.2 MBIt's my return guest show time - here's another one. However, you've unfortunately never heard my first recording with Juan Gonzalez, back when we did it. This was due to a glitch that I'm really sorry for. Juan holds the Community Contributor Award 2012 and has since joined the spanish office of Liferay, working mainly in support and in the Liferay Faces team. As we missed doing so in the recording - we'd like to have a shout out to all the support staff in/for Liferay. These are the guys t...

RL028 James Falkner on Symposium changes and community topics
June 24, 2013 11:00 - 52 minutes - 24 MBPlease welcome a return guest, James Falkner, Liferay's Community manager. I got him on to talk about the changes in the upcoming symposium's structure, but we continued with conversations about a lot of topics he also mentioned in his previous Community Roundup as well as a brave move that I'd like to tease here: He gives us the definitive release date for Liferay 6.2 - so remember: you've heard it first on Radio Liferay (More notes and links available in HTML version of this paragraph and...
RL027 Jorge Ferrer - Radio Liferay Episode 27
June 17, 2013 09:00 - 50 minutes - 23.1 MBI took some time to speak to Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering about all things Engineering and Development in Liferay.

After an episode "on the dark side", being the GM for Spain, he's back in engineering. We're talking about his responsibilities within the project, the company, and more. (M...
RL026 Ville Ingman (Vaadin) - Radio Liferay Episode 26
May 21, 2013 12:00 - 27 minutes - 24.8 MBAt this year's Jax I met Ville Ingmann, "Your Business Buddy" at Vaadin (the business card says "VP of German Operations"). With some inadvertent background noise (sorry) we talk about the history of Vaadin in Liferay, the meaning of the name, which also explains the logo, and the integration of Vaadin in Liferay (Vaadin is technology partner of Liferay, the library comes bundled with your Liferay installation and is available in the "New Project" wizard of Liferay IDE). (More notes and ...
RL025 AlloyUI 2.0 - Radio Liferay Episode 25
April 18, 2013 18:00 - 39 minutes - 36.8 MBAs a preview for AlloyUI was just released (together with the new website) I took the opportunity to have another episode about the UI layer. Luckily two members of the core team, Eduardo Lundgren (with Liferay since 2007/8) and Zeno Rocha (Sep 2012) volunteered. (Eduardo was mentioned already in episode 3 with Nate Cavanaugh, Zeno has joined Liferay since then. Both of them are members of the brazilian team.) We start with their history and * Zeno's project jquery boilerplate. He's also on...
RL024 LESA - Radio Liferay Episode 24
February 01, 2013 21:00 - 28 minutes - 26.3 MBThis is another episode recorded at the European Symposium 2012 in Wiesbaden. Zsolt Balogh, head of Liferay's Support for the EMEA reason talks about the pain points that led to developing a custom issuetracker and support management system. Enterprise customers know what he's talking about: Liferay is using LESA to handle support issues, fix and escalate them.

They both built upon earlier presentations at the nordic and french symposiums and have been used as inspirations for other presentations at the north american as well as the ...
RL022 Samuel Kong - Radio Liferay Episode 22
December 02, 2012 08:00 - 21 minutes - 20.1 MBYes, I know. I didn't keep my previous promise to quickly follow up with the next episode. Thus, I'm not promising again, only revealing that I'm planning to be quicker in future. podcast-logoThis is another episode recorded at the previous Liferay Retreat. I sat together with Samuel Kong, GM of the chinese office and member of Liferay's security team. As I've been carrying this recording around for quite some while, note that there have been some changes during the last year. First and fo...
RL021 Jim Hinkey. Bringing back Javadocs - Radio Liferay Episode 21
May 31, 2012 14:00 - 16 minutes - 15.4 MBMy apologies for the long break in publishing the episodes - I got distracted with a lot of work and once there is an interruption of a habit, you probably know how hard it is to get back into it. I hope to be on track again now and will publish the archive of already recorded episodes soon - and produce more of them. This is another episode recorded at the previous Liferay Retreat. I sat together with Jim Hinkey, Knowledge Engineer and part of Liferay's knowledgement and documentation team...
