Very nice to see you on board Andrew.
One more note to anyone who has not seen Andrew’s presentation on XLIFF processing expectation (or wants to put a face on the name), there is a version of the presentation Andrew did at TAUS a few weeks ago recorded here: http://youtu.be/s3jnTUApsj4
Cheers,

Subject: [xliff] Joining the TC
Hi everyone,
I'm writing to introduce myself as a new member of the XLIFF TC. You may know that I participated in the recent XLIFF Symposium and gave a talk called "XLIFF 2.0: Great (Processing) Expectations". (Peter Reynolds posted the slides: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/201110/msg00020.html) I've received a lot of encouragement to get more involved, so here I am!
A bit of background on me: I am primarily an implementer, and my perspective comes from writing a couple pieces of code that deal with XLIFF. I'm most interested in how to make XLIFF interoperate effectively, and I believe this will require a close examination of what each part of an XLIFF document means and what should or can be done with it.
I've worked at Spartan Consulting for the last two-plus years, during which I've done projects for TAUS Data Association and Welocalize. Long before, I was around at the early days of Idiom. However, I'm not an expert at localization processes, so I will be learning about that.
I'm honored and excited to be working on the future of XLIFF and localization standards. I think there's a lot to be done, but I'm ready to roll up my sleeves!
Andrew
