I can vouch for Greg, having worked with him during our mutual time at
GitHub that I greatly enjoyed, and can say with conviction that his GitHub
handle @wincent corresponds to the name Wincent Colaiuta.

I can also guarantee that you will enjoy hearing the story behind it,
although it might require you to buy Greg/Wincent a beer or two (which I
guarantee you won't regret, either).

Ciao,
Johannes
