If you’re into networking, debunking myths and giving credit where’s due while at it, just as I am, you’ll have a thrill reading this interview with Bill “router man” Yeager.
Fav quotes:
[...] Cisco has always had trouble giving me credit. They had a Web page that I was very irked by. ‘Sandy Lerner and Len Bosack were in love and they had to go out and invent routers so they could talk across campus.’ What a joke. And I’m like one of these bulldogs, you know, I get a hold of these guys’ pant’s leg and I won’t let go of it.
JXTA was put under the product side of things, which kind of gave me the shivers. I mean, you get into product stuff, and you’re in a box. You can’t get out. I always managed, but just because I was irritating enough for my vice presidents that they would say, ‘Go do something else.’
What’s your favorite wine?
Pinot Noir. Without any doubt. They are the most subtly complex wines. They have a spectrum of flavors that show a taste of the earth.
My man router man.
