In the two years I have been in the City, XBRL has come a long way. CoreFiling is really starting to pull things together.

I have been using CoreFiling’s Spidermonkey recently. It’s good, really good.

Building on the Eclipse platform, CoreFiling have not only rocketed ahead of their competitors in the field of XBRL taxonomy development, with a tool that is robust, usable and effective, but they are also offering a free personal version.

I recommend you go try it for yourself.

A busy few months since my last post, working outside the field of software, but I’m back.

Right now, I am working on three different XBRL training courses – for managers, developers and taxonomists – and it looks like I may be traveling to consult in the Antipodes and the Caribbean…

If time allows, I plan some XBRL tutorials…
