You can contact me regarding operational items behind id3.org as it runs on a server which I manage. Questions about ID3 tags and application announcements should be posted on the MailingList where the actual experts reside.
My background is in software engineering and large scale Internet application deployment and performance tuning. I was the VP of engineering at the original MP3.com from 1999 to 2003 and was a Unix programmer for the 15 years preceding MP3.com. More recently I co-founded, rebuilt, grew and sold Trusonic. I've also done consulting for Eventful, ChaCha, Certona and Rabble (sold to Good Technologies). If you have questions about network, systems, database and application scalability, I may be able to help.

The mod_perl eToy's scalability story is a worthwhile read. Much of the divide and conquer philosophy still applies.
