Hi! I work as, hmm, it's hard to define it, let's say as a web-engineer at W3C/Grenoble (hosted by INRIA), since January 1996.

My current activities at W3C are:

• W3C Staff contact fo the XKM Key Management Service (XKMS) WG. I took over from Joseph Reagle just as the group was about to move to transition from Last Call and I'm helping the WG to bring out the XKMS specification. I was editor of the CR issues list and wrote the XKMS implementation summary report, one of the requirements for moving on to PR.
• Build new/improve existing tools to simplify the every day life of WG and the team.

Some of my previous activities at W3C were:

• Annotea. A framework for collaborative shared annotations (and bookmarks).
• Amaya, W3C's own testbed editor/browser. I was the main responsible for its network layer and the Annotea client development (shared annotations and bookmarks).. I've also contributed to other parts of it, such as the Preferences menus.
• Mailing list hypertext archives. I developed the system we're using today. I won't describe it here, as I'm evolving it to something better, that I can be proud of, give to the community, and talk about with ease :-).
• Apache.. I developed a number of Apache modules for the W3 servers to provide better logging and specific access control features. I've only put one of these modules in the public-domain, mod_ip_forward, as the other ones are too specific to our needs. I have never thought that this is a great module. Hence, I was surprised when it got included in the official "apache contributed modules" distribution!
• W3C-LA mirroring project. This was an EU project for setting up mirrors of the W3C web server in different countries. I'm responsible for the configuration of the HTTP servers. Some of the Apache modules that I developed for this project eventually made it to the main W3C servers.

My principal activives outside of W3C are:

• WDAI. This is a personal proposal for a simple and general W3 distributed authorization infrastructure.

I suppressed the rest of the personal infomration from this section. As B. Traven said, "The work is important, the author is not. The works belong to the public, but the author's life belongs only to him. A writer should be known for his works, they are his true biography."
