Tamura Jones finds the GEDCOM X playground

...
I no sooner finished my RootsTech post and put atweet on Twitter about it, and than I saw Tamura Jones's tweet about his post titled "GEDCOM X" on his Modern Software Experience website. 

There are several highlights that Tamura has discovered:

*  The URLS www.gedcomx.org, www.gedcomx.com., and www.gedcomx.net were reserved by Gordon Clarke of FamilySearch last February right after the RootsTech 2011 conference.

*  FamilySearch is apparently using the www.Cloudbees.com freemium service to develop GEDCOM X.

*  There are some interesting screenshots on Tamura's site, with links to different documents, on the Cloudbees site relating to GEDCOM X.

Please read all of Tamura Jones's post and investigate on your own.
