I plan to package some extra dictionaries for OpenOffice.org. Another
package I wish to add is SquidGuard (URL filter for Squid), which I have
patched so it works with DB 4.2 (The latest version which is a few years
old only works with 4.0).
I don't mind doing QA, but I need to get a bit more familiar with how
things work first!
6.
I've done quite a bit of programming in languages including C, Java,
C++, PHP, Perl. I LOVE shell scripting. I'm a C programmer at heart.
I only know the basics of RPM, but I'm reading the docs at the moment.
I wrote a few patches which went into the (now obsolete) Jabber 1.4.2
server. I also wrote a simple php front end for searching MARC format
library databases (marcsearch.sourceforge.net), which is being used by a
few libraries around the world as a cheap (and superior) alternative to
a $3000 commercial product. I've filed many (hopefully useful) bugs on
various bugzilla's around the place, often with patches/solutions.
Why should you trust me??? You probably shouldn't (at first).
