Proud to be Embarcadero MVP

I am very proud to say that I am a Embarcadero Most Valuable Professional or just “Embarcadero MVP”.

In 1999 I met Delphi3 and it was love at first sight! Since then I have been publishing articles on the most important Brazilians Delphi Magazines just for the love and passion. No doubt Delphi was and still is the best development tool and language ever!

On March, I received a call from Embarcadero Brazil inviting me to join the so called “Embarcadero Community Evangelist Program” as I was a well known advocate in the community, and did great stuff for everyone’s benefit in all those years of work. The program tailored to recognize Embarcadero’s advocates in the community.

I accepted the invitation and since then we’ve been working in the shadows waiting for Embarcadero’s official announcement scheduled to be done during the World Tour.

Yesterday Anders Ohlsson bloged from Sidney and announced the very first member list of ”Embarcadero MVPs”, and now it is official… I am very proud to say that I am a Embarcadero Most Valuable Professional or just “Embarcadero MVP”.

The list has only 52 people including developers from all over the world. Being in the first list aside with names like Guinther Pauli, Ricardo Boaro, Marco Cantu, Bob Swart, Cary Jensen and many others is really something that makes me proud and happy… those are the guys I read articles and books during all this years… those are the guys I have always admired as great developers and gurus… and now I am one of them!?!?! wow!

As Anders said, an official landing page with links to everyone’s pages etc, as well as official logos, and other materials are in the works… in the meantime I have managed a list with some MVP twitter accounts so developers from all over the world can follow the Embarcadero MVP team to be the first to know about every Delphi related news, articles and stuff!
