Maurice has been an invaluable member of the editorial board at The Python Papers. He has both helped me complete specific tasks which I have assigned and also taken ownership of high-level tasks and worked on them to completion. Specifically, he has done a lot of the work which relates to the academic content of The Python Papers. Without him this would not have been achievable. He is a diligent worker, and a valued colleague.

• Publishing Member (2003), First Australian Undergraduate Students' Computing Conference (ISBN 0646427512)

I worked with Maurice in establishing and organising the Australian Undergraduate Students' Computing Conference, one of the first conferences of its kind in promoting undergraduate IT research. Maurice brings a powerful combination of professionalism, creativity and energy to his role in bringing together AUSCC and creating success in its inaugural year. He also played a very important role in laying down a solid foundation for AUSCC move forward and driving its success in the years to come.
