| SAN FRANCISCO, CA: Forecross® Corporation
(OTCBB: FRXX), a legacy to web and XML implementation solutions company,
announced today that it has hired Donald Estes as Director of Product Architecture. "We are very pleased to have Don join us," commented Kim O.
Jones, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Don is the author and architect of the
automated testing software that Forecross recently acquired. With more than twenty-five
years experience in the industry, particularly in applying language processing technology
to automated change and testing solutions for enterprise computing, Don is the right
person at the right time to get our XML products out the door."
"There is a terrific opportunity in the market for XML
products and services," said Don Estes. "B2B e-commerce will exacerbate the
problems which have plagued the industry since its inception. You can really solve these
problems only if you handle the data properly, and XML is the technology that will
facilitate just that. Other approaches are just Band-Aids.
"Automating the changes needed to legacy systems to take
advantage of XML, and automating the testing which is so critical to controlling costs and
business risks, is exactly the right approach. The products we are deploying will provide
the foundation for successful B2B e-commerce implementations right across the
economy."
Mr. Estes is a graduate of MIT and the University of Texas.
