Notes:

Until mid-2007, I was a software developer and web technology expert based in Denver, Colorado. I did many things over the years, but my contributions to the world of Open Source software are fairly modest:

• 2010: I wrote FixRIFF, a Python script to fix a very specific, obscure type of RIFF header problem affecting some WAV files found in the wild.
• 2007: Following up on my contributions to STD 66/RFC 3986 (the URI spec), I wrote a JavaScript-based library of URI processing functions and a rigorous, generic, in-browser test suite for JavaScript-based URI relative reference resolvers.
• 2001-2006: ongoing bug fixes, enhancements, documentation, user support, and behind-the-scenes co-sysadmin work for 4Suite, a Python-based toolkit for XML and RDF application development.
• 1997-2000: alternate icon set and occasional bug reports for the core Apache HTTP server; co-sysadmin of apache.org
• 1999-2001: occasional technical consultation for the XML portions of the Jabber instant messaging platform
• 1996: character set contributions to the Lynx console-based web browser

In the early 2000s, I wrote and compiled a collection of XML and XSLT related resources of interest to developers, especially those who need to be brought up to speed on Unicode and character encoding issues.
