Jim Buck (‘jbuck’) joins the team!

We are very happy to announce that Jim Buck (‘jbuck’ on the forums) has officially joined the Ogre Team. He will mainly take care to establish Ogre in the console area in his new position as Ogre Console Lead.

Jim has been programming in the video games industry since 1996, starting as an employee at Sony and shipping well-known PlayStation franchises such as Twisted Metal and GameDay. His own company, Twitchy Thumbs Entertainment, does contract development, especially in the areas of graphics and porting on most platforms, particularly on consoles, handheld devices, and anyplace where OpenGL has a home. It’s these areas where he feels he can make a contribution as part of the OGRE team.
