It's simple in my opinion: Spreading pragmatic .NET

I wasn't there, however that's my interpretation of the vision. I think one of the core competencies any developer needs to espouse is passion. Passion is at the root of being a pragmatic developer, regardless of whether or not you’re doing .NET/Java/Ruby/LISP, etc. We are going through a hiring phase at work right now, during the interviews, passion is one of the top characteristics that I look for in a candidate. Passion is a catalyst for being pragmatic. Where does your passion lie?
