A story about Tim Bray
XML Guru, all around smart guy.
Co-Inventor of XML, Sun Engineer, Photographer, and fine keeper of Ongoing.
I almost met Tim at FOSCon II (2006). He and I were both there, but I had no idea he’d be there so I didn’t bother looking. I guess I’ll have to wait for the next OSCon.
Tim will be giving a keynote at the JA-SIG Summer ‘06 Conference in Vancouver.
I saw a fellow in a sharp hat at Northern Voice in Vancouver. We chatted for a good bit.
I’m sure it was back in the pre-XML days at some SGML ‘xx conference (SGML conferences count as pre-XML, right? :-), but I don’t recall precisely when or where.
