Dan Mcdonald is a Smartos and Triton Engineering at MNX Solutions. He possess expertise in solaris, tcp/ip, software engineering, unix, kernel and 28 more skills. He is proficient in German. Colleagues describe him as "Dan's brain has multiple cores. It has become customary to throw around the term "multi-tasking" in the business world, but usually what is meant is doing one task, interrupting one's train of thought, settling back down, then going back to the first task. Dan is much better than that. He literally simultaneously does 2-3 tasks at a time while retaining his complete context throughout. I have never seen a more productive and energetic engineer than Dan, day in and day out, from the deepest technical problems to the mundane bureaucratic rigmarole. Dan is also a great leader and team motivator. He has an uncanny knack for rallying the troops and leads by example, always the first to volunteer and organize. At the same time, he remains approachable and helpful, even for the most seemingly stupid questions. His knowledge spans a great breadth of topics and he is respected by technical giants throughout the company. I'd highly and unquestionably recommend Dan on a technical and personal basis. It's a pleasure to work with such an energetic and upbeat person who "gets it"." and "Dan proved to be one of the most admirable people I've met at Sun so far. As a RFC author and person who integrated IPsec stack to Solaris he is the person with ultimate network security experience and knowledge. I also value Dan for his unique approach to colleagues - though not being core member of the IPsec development team I still feel like at home there. And last but not least Dan's "super feature" is that he never leaves any problem unsolved. That said, he is entertaining person too :)"
