Stuart Langridge (also known as 'Aq'[2]) is an information architect for a media firm based in the United Kingdom. He is the author of two books for technical publisher SitePoint, DHTML Utopia[3], and Run Your Own Web Server Using Linux & Apache[4] (with Tony Steidler-Dennison) as well as writing the Stylish Scripting weblog[5] during 2005. Langridge is a member of the Web Standards Project's DOM Scripting Task Force[6], an invited expert on the W3C HTML Working Group and is an acknowledged commentator on DOM Scripting and JavaScript techniques.
His current projects include Jokosher, a multi-track audio editor for GNOME, and Jackfield, a program to run Mac OS X Dashboard widgets under GNOME.
Despite this, Langridge is perhaps best known as a presenter of LugRadio, a free software podcast in the UK. Along with Jono Bacon, he is the longest serving member of the team and often serves to incite discussion around issues that more directly relate to software freedom.[7] In LugRadio he frequently advocates freedom, yet despite this often attracts criticism for using proprietary software [8].
