Arch Linux
As an Arch Linux Developer and Trusted User, I am leading the development of the Arch User Repository web interface and maintaining the Arch Linux projects page as well as roughly 150 packages.
I am the author of aurdupes, a Python script that can be used to find duplicate packages in pacman databases and the Arch User Repository.
calcurse
I am the current maintainer of calcurse, a powerful command-line based calendar program.
jpeg-archive
In late 2017, I started co-maintaining jpeg-archive, a utility to compress JPEG images for long-term storage without sacrificing perceived visual quality.
Deprecated Projects
cdlib-eject was a lightweight C program to control Dacal CD Library II devices. It is no longer maintained.
Open Source Contributions
I occasionally contribute to other projects. Projects I have contributed to in the past include
- alot, a terminal-based mail user agent,
- arch-audit, an utility like pkg-audit for Arch Linux,
- GNU automake, a tool to automate parts of the compilation process,
- cgit, a hyperfast web frontend for Git repositories written in C,
- OpenSMTPD spam filter integration,
- the version control system Git,
- libfaketime, a library that can be used to modify the system time for a single application,
- the package manager pacman,
- the password manager pass,
- pygit2, which provides Python bindings for libgit2, and
- xwax, an open-source Digital Vinyl System for Linux.
