User:Reagle/Bio-factoids

As I wrote in the post "Not notable: Dead to Wikipedia", I was disappointed with the quality the Joseph M. Reagle Jr. biography but abstained from editing it myself; in 2015 it was deleted for lack of notability. I then provided some verifiable factoids that someone could use if the article was resurrected, which it has been, but the biography is still lacking; the following material could help to improve the existing article.

Standards
The W3C People page documents:


 * Reagle worked at the W3C/MIT from 1996-2003.
 * Reagle chaired various security, privacy, and policy working groups within the W3C. He was a co-chair XML Signature and XML Encryption working groups and also edited the specifications . The XML Signature work also entailed  moving the work through the IETF as seen in these minutes
 * Reagle oversaw the development of W3C trademark, patent, and copyright licenses. This is corroborated in an OSI request. He also worked on an "Analysis of P3P and US Patent 5,862,325"
 * During this time he was listed as one of the "Innovators Under 35" in 2002.

 * He was an early user and advocate of the Web and Open Access.
 * He posted "The Parting of the Mist", a paper about *Blade Runner*, online in 1995 and which was translated into Italian in 1999. He argued that not only was Decard a replicant, but the others knew him to be one.
 * He was perhaps the first to post all the content of a course, on New Media Culture, to GitHub under a Creative Commons license in 2012.
 * Reagle was an early cypherpunk and student at UMBC as seen in the post on quantum cryptography to the cypherpunks list; also see this archive of Julian Assange related posts.

 * One of the things he produced during his first fellowship was research on the provenance of early quotations about the Internet.

 * His book was released as a Web version under a Creative Commons license in 2011.
 * The books' translation into Japanese is complete (aside from the references of the later chapters).
 * Reagle was one of the first researchers to conduct a quantitative analysis of gender bias in Wikipedia biographies, which was followed by work on bias in free culture more generally, and studies of geek feminism.
