At the time what became the XML Working Group was chartered, Tim Bray was an Invited Expert with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and a friend of Jon Bosak, the project leader. He was also working as an independent consultant, making him the master of his own schedule. On the capability front, he had previously been the manager of a major text digitization project: the conversion of the Oxford English Dictionary. The rest, as they say, is history.
