Norm’s Leaving

Norm’s leav­ing Sun. I’ve nev­er worked with Norm on a Sun-intern­al pro­ject, as his pro­jects did­n’t over­lap with mine, but I’ve worked with him on oth­ers, most par­tic­u­larly the OASIS Entity Res­ol­u­tion TC. He was also one of the review­ers and ses­sion chairs I could most rely on when I was chair­ing the XML conference.

Norm was one of the reas­ons I was happy to join Sun; I’ve always thought his intel­li­gence and integ­rity, along with his depth of know­ledge and good humour, reflec­ted well on any com­pany that employed him. Norm, I wish you all the best at Mark Logic, they’re lucky to have con­vinced you to join them.
