Tim Berners-Lee
Please see W3C People, a list of people involved with the World Wide Web Consortium.
Thomas R Bruce
Formerly a staff member in charge of computer operations at the Cornell Law School, Tom is now a research associate working on a variety of projects involving the dissemination of legal information on the Internet. He is the author Cello, an all-singing, all-dancing WWW browser for Microsoft Windows. E-mail:tom@law.mail.cornell.edu.
Robert Cailliau
Formerly in programming language design and compiler construction, Robert has been interested in document production since 1975, when he designed and implemented a widely used document markup and formatting system. He ran CERN's Office Computing Systems group from 87 to 89. He is a long-time user of Hypercard, which he used to such diverse ends as writing trip reports, games, bookkeeping software, and budget preparation forms. Robert is mainly supporting physics experiments with WWW. There aremore personal data, CERN coordinates Be aware of hisagenda .
Dan Connolly
Please see W3C People, a list of people involved with the World Wide Web Consortium.
Peter Dobberstein
While at the DESY lab in Hamburg (DE), Peter did the port of the line-mode browser onto MVS and, indirectly, VM/CMS. These were the most difficult of the ports to date. He also overcame many incidental problems in making a large amount of information in theDESY database available.
"Erwise" team
Kim Nyberg, Teemu Rantanen, Kati Suominen and Kari Syd{nmaanlakka ('{' is 'a' with two dots above it.. we must get some character set description into HTML!) (under the supervision of Ari Lemmke) are "Erwise". At Helsinki Technical University, they are writing a Motif-based WWW browser (editor? we can hope...) for their undergraduate final year project. The team can be reached as erwise@cs.hut.fi and Ari as arl@cs.hut.fi.
Alain Favre
Alain is an undergraduate working with ECP/PT on a browser for Windows on PCs. Phone: 8265, no email yet. In CERN mostly in the afternoons.
Roy Fielding
Please see W3C People, a list of people involved with the World Wide Web Consortium.
David Foster
With wide experience in networking, and a current conviction information systems and PC/Windows being the way of the future, Dave is having a go at a MS-Windows browser/editor. Dave also has a strong interest in server technology and intelligent information retrieval algorithms.
Henrik Frystyk
Please see W3C People, a list of people involved with the World Wide Web Consortium.
Jean-Francois Groff
During his stay at CERN as "cooperant", J-F joined the project in September 1991. He wrote the gateway to the VMS Help system , worked on a new modular browser architecure, and helped support and present WWW at all levels. He later as consultant ported the communications code to DECnet in order to set up servers for physics experiments., and helped the Danish Technical Library set up their W3 server. JF also worked for NeXT Europe. He now is a consultant in networked information systems (Contact) jfg@infodesign.ch
Tony Johnson
Tel: (415) 926 2278, TONYJ@scs.slac.stanford.edu.
Designer of MidasWWW . Boston University, collaborating with SLAC, SSC, etc. A SLAC server expert and aWWWizard .
John Kilburg
Wrote an Athena-based WWW browser namedChimera. Chimera uses a modification of the NCSA HTML widget to display HTML. In real life he is the system programmer for the Department of Physics at UNLV.
Paul Kunz
Paul took the W3 word across to SLAC, installed the clients and inspired the setting up of servers by the WWWizards. Paul spreads enthusiasm for all sort of good ideas such as OO programming, NeXTs, etc...
Willem van Leeuwen
at NIKHEF, WIllem put up manyservers and has provided much useful feedback about the w3 browser code.
Ari Luotonen
A Technical Student at CERN, in the project from July 1993 until July 1994. He is a Software Engineering major at Tampere University of Technology, Finland. Ari has written most of the CERNhttpd, especially the caching proxy support. In addition he has implemented numerous CGI applications, most famous being the WIT - W3 Interactive Talk. Ari is currently working at Mosaic Communications Corporation. See also hisCV.
