Rony G. Flatscher has been working as an information system professor at WU Vienna (www.wu.ac.at). He teaches among other subjects introduction to programming for Business Administration students, who in the course of these "Business Porgramming" lectures also learn how to script Apache OpenOffice (AOO). He has been successfully using the "human centric" programming language ooRexx (www.ooRexx.org) to teach programming, and takes advantage of his package BSF4ooRexx (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/), which contains enhanced ("UNO") support for making it easy to script AOO. Rony has been a committer in the Apache BSF (Bean Scripting Framework) project, now hosted under the umbrella of Apache "commons" and is a member of ASF.
