Jim aimed for independence early in his career. His main strengths are technical but he is experienced in business and successfully marketed services to end customers between 1996 and 2002.
He has frequently worked behind the front line in major IT developments. He contributed to early development of digital mobile phone technology, workflow systems at IBM, and Web services & SOA governance at Systinet. He was an early enthusiast for Linux and the internet.
His pervasive interest has been in software engineering and development processes. His experience with parsing, code generation and documentation systems make DOM, XSL and XML Schema his natural Java/XML specializations.
