Hakon Wium Lie
CSS co-inventor who proposed the CSS font solution for font selection on web pages in 1994: browser makers should fully implement the CSS font specification by letting raw, unprotected font files be linked to web pages. And revise the CSS specs to allow zipped font collections to be linked to web pages, so that web designers can benefit from the large volume of freeware fonts. He is still a member of the W3C CSS Working Group. He is the CTO of Opera Software and a champion for CSS compliance in all browsers. Lie is also a director of YesLogic, the company behind the CSS-based Prince formatter, which was used to produce a book he co-authored: Cascading Style Sheets: Designing for the Web. He has a Master's degree from the MIT Media Lab and a PhD from the University of Oslo. He is an advocate of Acid2. |
