Timeline

1963

Tim Howes (born September 21, 1963) is a software engineer, entrepreneur and author.

He is the co-creator of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), the Internet standard for accessing directory servers.

He co-founded enterprise software company Opsware, internet browser company Rockmelt, and children's education company, Know Yourself.

He has co-authored two books, several Internet RFCs, and holds several patents.

X.500 directories list network resources to make finding them and using them easier for network administrators and users.

Unfortunately, accessing X.500 records has required a full-blown X.500 server; there was no such thing as an X.500 client.

This led Howes to co-create DIXIE, a directory client for X.500 directories (as well as contribute significant enhancements to improve performance of the Quipu directory).
