Arnaud Le Hors 2024 – CC BY 4.0
After several years focusing on strategic and policy issues related to open source and standards, including in the emerging markets, I decided to get back to my roots and focus more on technical work. I am involved in several software standards and open source development efforts with IBM. I am currently the main representative for IBM at W3C and INCITS, and serve as the Vice Chair of the OpenSSF Technical Advisory Committee.
I am a Senior Technical Staff Member part of the Open Technologies group at IBM. I have been working on standards and open source for over 30 years, both as a staff member of the X Consortium and W3C, and as a representative for IBM. I have been involved in every aspect of the open technology development process: technical, strategic, political, and legal. I was editor of several key web specifications including HTML and DOM and was a pioneer of open source with the release of libXpm in 1990 (which is still in use today! 😊). I participated in several prominent open source projects including the X Window System and the Apache XML parser Xerces, and more recently the blockchain framework Hyperledger Fabric. I’ve chaired several technical groups at W3C and OASIS, such as the XML and Linked Data Working groups, as well as more recently the Hyperledger Technical Advisory Committee and the LF Edge Open Retail Reference Architecture group.
