I work on open source projects with a focus on Tcl/Tk and OpenBSD.

I maintain several Tcl-related OpenBSD ports, which has an interesting side effect in that I often end up touching many other open source projects, normally just doing fixes.

I have my own projects, though my main focus is other peoples' software.
I'm not working on "the next big thing", I'm just trying to fix bugs, clean out entropy, and in general keep the open source machine well-oiled and running smoothly.

I'm mostly a Tcl and C programmer, though through porting I often end up working with other languages and systems.
I work with build systems (autotools, cmake, etc.) and languages (C, Tcl, Python, etc.) in a UNIX environment.
I also do web stuff (html, css, js, php, mysql, etc.) and system administration.

If there is an OpenBSD port that should be added or updated, or if there are any specific projects or goals that need work, please let me know.
I'm always happy to help out.

Recent work:
OpenBSD: Tcl 9, SWIG update (this touched on a few other software projects).

Currently working on:
Hylafax port, changing the default Tcl version to 8.6 in the OpenBSD ports system.

Upcoming (for sure):
There are quite a few ports that need updates. Will happen after the jump to 8.6.
With Tcl 9 now in ports, there needs to be a (good) way to build/install Tcl extensions for both 8.6 and 9.

Upcoming (maybe/hopefully):
Work on TclUDP, TclTLS, new Tcl3d port, new OpenSmalltalk port.
