Jean Paoli
Jean Paoli is one of the inventors of XML. Along with Tim Bray and C. Michael Sperberg-McQueen, Paoli co-edited the XML 1.0 recommendation for the World Wide Web Consortium starting in 1997 and until at least 2008.[1][2]
Paoli moved from Paris to join Microsoft in 1996, where he worked on the Channel Definition Format for Internet Explorer 4.0,[3] advocated for the original Microsoft Office XML formats, and promoted Office Open XML. Along with Adriana Neagu and others he was a co-inventor of InfoPath and is named on its patented way of authoring XML using DHTML views and XSLT.[4]
As of late 2017, Paoli has announced on LinkedIn that he has departed Microsoft and is now working on a new stealth startup (Docugami, Inc.) focused on productivity, machine learning, semi-structured data and documents.
