Steven, can you take this one? Note the date dependency...it's after the site relaunch, so it should be relatively simple & straightforward.

Don't see a blog on Planet - is there another link we can use?

You can use his LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=3934558

Done in trunk in r79544. Merged to stage in r79551.

The linkedin URL requires a login - which isn't ideal.

Melissa and Erica - I'm adding you so you're aware of this and in case you want to weigh in on using Gary's LinkedIn profile as the link from his name. I asked him whether we should use it this morning since he doesn't yet have a working blog (he said he has a blog but hasn't written anything and doesn't know where it is) and he thought it was a good choice for now.

thanks, liz. i think this is ok but we'll want to change it to his blog once that's up and running.  alternately, once gary has a wikipedia page, we could link to that.  adding sprior as she's working on revamping comms on the website and can make sure to update this bug (or file a new one) once we have a more compelling link for gary.

CC'ing Alex for a push to production. As for the link, file a quick bug (you can assign to me) whenever it needs to change.
