Here are a few projects that I’ve been involved with in one form or another. Click a banner below to see more details…
Contributions
Arch Linux
I am a Trusted User for Arch Linux, meaning I contribute trusted binary packages to their community repository and help with special projects. I am also active in providing support on the forums and on IRC. For a list of the software packages I maintain, see my community packages and my AUR page.
Factor
Factor is “a general purpose, dynamically typed, stack-based programming language” that I have been experimenting with for a while now. I’ve had the opportunity to contribute back a decent amount of code to the project, including new math libraries, editor integration code, and numerous Project Euler solutions using the language. I keep up to date with Factor’s mailing list and IRC chatroom, and have begun writing a series of blog posts entitled Beginning Factor to help others learn the language. I host a copy of Factor’s git repository (including my contributions) on my projects subdomain: http://projects.elasticdog.com/git/
WordPress
I’ve used the WordPress blogging engine for a number of years and have written various plugins that have been downloaded tens of thousands of times. I still write about the technical side of WordPress on this blog and continually contribute to the community in some capacity.
