Having joined the project in late 1998, I reimplemented the InterViews/Fresco architecture in the context of Berlin, i.e. making its use of CORBA standard conformant, replacing its interface to X11 by a Console layer that is nowadays implemented by GGI, SDL, and DirectFB.
I started the Synopsis project to have a powerful means to generate a manual out of the various pieces of source code we are writing.
I'm mostly interested in the architectural side of things, i.e. keeping the whole thing together, making it intuitive and simple to work with...

Following Berlin since '96, but main contributions are current Python client library stuff, and miscellaneous fixes to the server. Working on Synopsis too, which generates the API documentation for Fresco. Enjoying summer break before my final year at RMIT (B.Eng. (Comp.Sys.Eng) / B.App.Sci (Comp.Sci)) by working fulltime as an intern at Agilent Technologies and finally getting some money from all these coding skills OS programming has given me :)

I mainly do the technical side of these webpages, and the little graphical designs you see scattered. I work mainly in XML, XSL(t) and HTML, but I have a 8 year history of core C-programming to justify my true hacker spirit, and I do follow the development in the deeper end of things but I don't have the time right now to focus any harder to do some actual development down there.

I'm also heavily into music and literature, study historic religion, and live with my wife and daughter in Oslo, Norway.

'Ello. I hang around and sometimes do stuff.

Highlights include: perl clients for Fresco, making the web site go, arguing with Stefan, etc.

Next on my hit-list are a decent testing framework and proper color support.

I took up Fresco as a way to learn CORBA and C++. Since I like to play with 3d, I've been focusing on OpenGL support and Fresco's PrimitiveKit. I also did the PSDrawingKit that produces PostScript. Off Fresco, I usually end up doing web sites. I like Perl and the XML alphabet soup.

Started following Berlin/Fresco's progress in ~1999/2000, simply as a user trying to get it compiled and running. Now I'm a fairly active contributor, but I still do a lot of build-testing/bug-finding. I also have a passion for making code as legible as possible :)

I'm currently studying for a PhD (almost finished!) in physical transistor simulation, and soon looking for a job, hopefully in software development.

I would like to see Fresco succeed in its goal to replace X. My main aim is on fixing bugs right now and making the current interface look better. After this I will probably work on adding additional widgets and a few client applications.

Aside from that I'm a student in Waterloo, Canada, like to code odd C++ constructs and graphics coding (in particular raytracing).

I fix a lot of bugs that are not really there, document features that are not really there and do a lot of other nonsense to keep the people around me busy;-)

In real life I am a student of Computer Engineering at the University of Kaiserslautern in Germany. I'm doing my master thesis on 3D graphics on mobile devices right now and am rather successful at sneaking Fresco into it.

For now I try to make good work on den Debian GNU/Linux packages of Fresco. In addition to that I make packages of related software like omniorb.
