RE: Master did-uri-spec Grammar: First Executable Reference Parser Implementation is available

Markus.

There is no need to act this way, especially in public as you are prone to doing. Previously, I haven't responded to your public rants because I consider this approach to be unprofessional.

That being said, here is a summary of the tangible and truthful education, knowledge, and experience I bring to the Hyperonomy did-uri-spec project and everything else I do.

I have 2 degrees in computer science from the University of Waterloo:

  *   BMath'81 Computer Science major, and
  *   MMath'86  Computer Science/Computer Graphics major

plus 40+ years of experience including working for the2 of the largest software companies on the planet:

  *   Microsoft  - working for Microsoft Consulting Services Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft SharePoint, and several other product groups, plus
  *   IBM Toronto Software Lab - IBM C++ compiler, AS/400 dev tools, ImagePlus, DB/2 workstation products

My Master thesis was on the topic of architecting highly reconfigurable large software projects. Unfortunately, it was authored with troff and I don't have a machine-readable copy to share with you.  The thesis did produce a refereed IEEE COMPSAC paper entitled:
Pinc-A Tool For Maintaining Configurable Software in Pascal
(https://hyperonomy.com/2017/05/18/michael-herman-inventor-of-graphitization/).

At Omnibus Computer Graphics, I wrote the Scene Animation Language Interpreter (SALI) using these compiler technologies and approaches.

I was a beta community member for Microsoft PowerShell and an early adopter the OASIS OData specifications (https://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata/v4.0/errata02/os/complete/abnf/odata-abnf-construction-rules.txt) - experiences that I'm also leveraging heavily (and openly).

At Alias Research, I led the engineering team that created Alias Upfront for Windows - a 3D modeler that Bill Gates had singled out as "the most outstanding graphics product" for Windows 3.0.

At Microsoft, I wrote the DDTP (Digital Dashboard Transport Protocol), an web browser compatible Internet protocol handler replacement for HTTP written in C/C++ that enabled entire web sites stored in Exchange Server Public Folders and locally replicated to the local public folders in every Outlook email client on a global basis.

I visited and worked with colleagues and supervisors at Bell Labs Murray Hill, XEROX PARC, and IBM Research.  I first used the DARPA network in 1976 before the Internet as we know it today exited.  I deployed one of the earliest public IIS web servers in 1995 on the World Wide Web.  I've written IIS server extensions.

Markus, have I also tried to build some rapport with you by engaging in conversation?  Absolutely. Unfortunately, from you,  I've mostly received this same type of response each time.

Continue throwing as many stones as you'd like.

Michael,

I'm glad to see that after

1. studying the DIF Universal Resolver<https://github.com/decentralized-identity/universal-resolver/> implementation,
2. asking me several questions about its parsing functionality,
3. learning about the aParse<http://www.parse2.com/> tool from me,

... you were then able to use this information to conduct your own experiments with your own "master" grammar.

You're welcome!

Markus
