There is more information on Jon Bosak at:

http://www.xml.com/pub/au/Bosak_Jon

He's an interesting guy and I have read an interview where he bristles at
some of the claims some folks make about XML.  Prior to being an engineer at
Sun, he did a lot of work with SGML.

For those interested in the philosophy of XML, it would be well worth your
time.
