Scenes from the Engine Room

About

In case you’re wondering who I am, my name is Ben Allums. These days, I’m Director of Engineering here at Quadralay/WebWorks.com. I started working at Quadralay back in 1994. Back then, our main product was a C++ development environment, UDT. We needed help for it, so Tony McDow wrote a quick MIF to HTML translation tool. When we showed it to the customer, they weren’t too interested in buying UDT, but that MIF tool, they thought that was pretty cool. From that point, I was involved in the planning and architecture of a number of Quadralay Products:

- Publisher 2.0 – 3.5
- Publisher 6.0 – 8.0 (I was at IBM/Tivoli for a while)
- WebWorks Help 2.0 – 5.0
- An edit/review product with the initials FD which shall otherwise remain nameless
- ePublisher 9.0 – 9.3

So if you’ve got a question regarding current WebWorks products or if you’re jonesing for a vintage copy of UDT on Solaris, send me an email at allums@webworks.com.
