He is the CEO and Co-Founder of WebDevStudios.com, the co-author of <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/pro-wp\" target=\"_blank\">Professional WordPress<\/a> from WROX, and a co-host on the SitePoint Podcast. You can check out his full bio <a href=\"http:\/\/wordcampphilly.com\/speakers\/#bwilliams\">here<\/a>. His topic, most likely an addition to the Springsteen track, is to be announced shortly. Brad has also joined the organizing team for the event, so we&#8217;re happy to have him on multiple fronts.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re also pleased to have Vasken Hauri, a web developer at Plymouth State University, also confirmed for the program. His presentation title is still in the works, but the topic will discuss the ongoing development of WP-CAS Server, a plugin to convert WP into a fully-functioning CAS server. Vasken&#8217;s presentation will be included in the Springsteen track.
