Organizing workshops with senior architects of the Rabobank Group. During these workshops (2005), the Building Blocks Model was discovered.
Issuing the first repository that is created by means of the Building Blocks Model. At that time, the repository was not automated, but it was an excellent way of testing and fine-tuning of the model.

Many enthusiastic architects and infrastructure specialists

Because it is too big a chance that people will be forgotten trying to name all committed and competent professionals that contributed to the methodology and the repository, we would like to thank all of you with this single statement. This initiative is meant to support and foster the growth of our beautiful line of work. The more people are involved, the faster we are able to develop the infrastructure architecture practice further. So, all contributions, comments, idea's, suggestions, criticisms, and more is very welcome!
