This contains a set of info about me, including contact details, work, etc.
Contact Details
Where?
I live in Carmarthen, in West Wales (which is an area of Wales in the Southwest). Wales is part of the UK, but isn't England. And I'm English, not Welsh. Gosh, it's confusing, isn't it?
IETF Work
Mostly IMAP, although I did quite a bit on ACAP, and know my way around SMTP. I've also a passing familiarity with SASL, including some work on SCRAM.
XSF Work
Council: 2018 (Chair), 2017 (Chair), 2016, 2015, 2014, 2009 (Partial), 2008, 2007 Board: 2015, 2013, 2011 (Chair)
Employment
Currently "Messaging" at Forward Health, previously Threads (briefly), Surevine, Inky, and Isode. All the jobs I've had since sometime in Isode have been XMPP-related except at Inky (standards-based email) and Threads (so I left).
Software
Done stuff with Openfire, Prosody, and M-Link in my past. Also done a surprising amount with SliXMPP. Created Metre from scratch. All of this in "Critical Messaging" applications.
Currently working on a Secret Project.
