Guy Schalnat is credited as an author of the PNG specification, the shared technical description of a file format for raster images using lossless source coding.[ref]
Willem van Schaik is credited as an author of the PNG specification, the shared technical description of a file format for raster images using lossless source coding.[ref]
Glenn Randers-Pehrson is credited as an author and former editor of the PNG specification. His name appears in the format's editorial history as well as its joint author list, linking the person to the maintained technical specification for interchange of raster images using lossless source coding.[ref]

Dave Martindale is credited as an author of the PNG specification, the shared technical description of a file format for raster images using lossless source coding.[ref]
Chris Lilley is credited as an editor and author of the PNG specification and as an editor of CSS Color. These works connect raster image interchange with explicit color space definitions, including the difference between encoded RGB values and components in Linear-light RGB.[ref]

Chris Herborth is credited as an author of the PNG specification, the shared technical description of a file format for raster images using lossless source coding.[ref]
Phil Harvey is credited as an author of the PNG specification. The author list establishes his contribution to the shared raster image file format specification, whose metadata and data compression conventions permit independently developed tools to exchange images.[ref]
Jean-loup Gailly is credited as an author of the PNG specification and is associated with the development of gzip and the zlib compression library. The zlib project's own author credit names Gailly and Mark Adler, connecting their work to widely reused Deflate-based compression.[ref]

Andreas Dilger works on the Lustre file system, a file system for large parallel storage installations. The project's user-group programme identifies him as the speaker on the Lustre development roadmap, covering scalability, compression, metadata caching and storage efficiency. Such work concerns how many clients can use a shared storage service while preserving the required file system behaviour.[ref]

Lee Daniel Crocker is credited as an author of the PNG specification. The specification defines how raster images, compressed data and ancillary metadata are represented so that independently written encoders and decoders can exchange the same image data.[ref]

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
