Jens Ayton was the second lead developer for Oolite, taking over from Aegidian around 2006/7 and surrendering the baton to Cim in 2013/4.

Version 1.76 was his first important release, coming out in Dec 2011, with a tweak (v1.76.1) the following May, having been nick-named "the MNSR" (Mythical Next Stable Release (after Aegidian's 1.65)). Some of the then development team at that time (Aegidian, Kaks, Micha and another_commander) even met up in a pub in London with some members of the community, fully equipped with laptops and stuff and did the release from inside the pub in full celebration. Versions 1.77/1.771 (2013) were the last of the 'old-style' versions.

The author of Dry Dock for Oolite, the then premier post-processing tool for Oolite spacecraft models. He was a fearsome partisan for Yaw in the Roll vs Yaw crusades‎, and oversaw its introduction into Oolite.

He also has a programming blog thing which updates some years.
