Subject: Re: [dita] Educational background of voting members of the TC


Inspiring! I've lapsed on my voting status for Adoption, but my educational background:

BA in Germanic Studies (learned German and French)

I was a lit geek while hacking HTML on the side.

Folks, recently someone commented that DITA (and XML in general) is not useful for technical authors because it is developed by mathematicians and computer scientists.

That made me wonder about the education background of voting members of the TC. As far as I know, quite a few of us have background in the humanities:

Anderson
Bissantz
Day: English and Journalism
Doherty: English
Eberlein: History
Hackos: English
Hamilton
Harrison
Helfinstine
Hudson
Kimber
Magliery
Myers
Nitchie
Priestley: Drama
