I believe the intro paragraph makes it clear the importance of the person. -- Taku (talk) 00:32, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

That he directed a department at Nokia? Do you have any reliable sources indicating the notability of that achievment? Beeblbrox (talk) 00:40, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

That and Grammy award. I'm not sure about what you mean by a "reliable source indicating the notability of the achievement". Surely it (being former director) means that he served an important post. You are not questioning the factuality of this claim, right?

[edit] Dopplr

I'm also an investor in Dopplr so I though it would be slightly self-serving for me to add this edit myself. Please add it if you feel it is notable. --Joi (talk) 13:02, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

He is a founding investor in online business travel start-up Dopplr.

Done. Since the notability is an inclusion criterion, I don't think adding this kind of stuff yourself could cause much problem. On the other hand, maybe you have to be careful about your publicity; how that works I don't know. -- Taku (talk) 21:15, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice Taku. --Joi (talk) 06:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
