I should probably have signed up with Advogato a while ago, but I've been a bit busy recently. Now that I've got a bit of spare time (gained partly from staying up too late) I'm going to try to dedicate a bit more time to free software work.
Current projects are:
- Work out what to do about recode's
IBM870 character set, which doesn't have the same definition
as IBM's CCSID
870. This means that tn5250
does the wrong character translations between Polish EBCDIC
and ISO-8859-2.
- Update my Debian tn5250
package. Given the time since the last release, I think
I'm going to have to package a CVS snapshot, and I also want
to separate out lib5250 as a separate package. This will
take some time and work, which is why I've been putting it
off.
- Bug GTRC about
the x3270
license again. Does anyone have any contacts
there?
- See if I can handle any more Debian packages, or helping
out in other areas. tn5250 uses Robodoc
to generate some of the documentation, and it's not
packaged...
- Buy more RAM so that I can run Gnome, XEmacs and Mozilla all at the same time. *g*
No doubt I'll think of more as time goes by. Feel free to bug me if nothing seems to be happening with these ones.
Cool things:
- ADSL
- Advogato *g*
- Debian 2.2 release
- Ogg Vorbis and XMMS
- XSLT
- Sinfest
- Filter
